    Our team personally reached out and conducted an insightful interview with this community on Jan. 15, 2024. Here's what we learned:

    About Clayton Elks Living

    Clayton Elks Living is a senior living community that offers both assisted living and memory care services to cater to the diverse needs of its residents. The community is designed to provide a supportive environment for seniors who require assistance with daily activities or specialized memory care.

    Accommodations and Availability

    As of the latest update, Clayton Elks Living does not have a waitlist for its assisted living services, allowing for immediate opportunities for seniors seeking residency. Additionally, the community offers options for respite care and short-term stays, providing flexibility for seniors and their families.

    Transportation Services

    Residents of Clayton Elks Living have access to transportation services, such as a van or shuttle, which facilitates trips for shopping, doctor's appointments, and other outings, ensuring residents can maintain their independence and stay connected with the community.

    Dining Experience

    The dining experience at Clayton Elks Living resembles that of a restaurant, with a menu that changes daily. Residents can enjoy a variety of meal options, including an "always available" menu and multiple choices for lunch and dinner. The dining atmosphere encourages social interaction, with residents free to sit wherever they prefer, though many choose to dine with the same group regularly.

    Staff and Medical Support

    The community is staffed with two Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) available Monday to Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM. Additionally, medication technicians (med techs) are on staff 24 hours a day to ensure residents receive their medications and care around the clock. For medical oversight, two physicians or nurse practitioners visit the community to provide healthcare services to the residents.

    Safety Measures

    For safety and emergency response, residents are equipped with pendants or wristbands that can be used to alert staff in case of an urgent need or medical issue.

    Addressing Resident Concerns

    If a resident has a complaint or concern, the first point of contact is one of the community's nurses, with one nurse dedicated to assisted living and another to memory care. These nurses handle issues and complaints within their respective sections. For matters that require further attention, the executive director is available to address resident and family concerns.

    Pet Policy

    Clayton Elks Living is a pet-friendly community, allowing residents to live with their beloved pets and enjoy the companionship they provide.

    Family Communication

    The community maintains active communication with residents' families through various channels. There is a Facebook page for general updates and a specialized platform called LifeLoop.

It also enables direct messaging to family members, keeping them informed and engaged with the community life of their loved ones.

    Staff Contact

    For inquiries and assistance, Suzanne, the business office manager at Clayton Elks Living, is available to address questions and provide information about the community's services and amenities.
