A Note from Our Director

All the independence you want

While independence is a prominent theme each July, at The Pearl it is a core value every day. I like to say Assisted Living is "all the independence you want, with all the assistance you need." We treat each resident as a unique individual rather than a diagnosis or room number. From daily meal choice to personalized routines and ever-changing activity programs, our residents enjoy the autonomy to live freely while receiving tailored assistance.

We also recognize that some residents may reach a point where families must step in to make decisions in their loved one's best interest. In these moments, we serve as a dedicated partner — whether the focus is on longevity or quality of life. From education on disease processes and the risks of noncompliance, to the benefits of healthy choices, our ultimate goal is to facilitate the best possible outcome for every resident. No two situations are the same, and we strive to provide care that honors those individual priorities.

As always, thank you for partnering with us to provide care for your family.

— Rebekah Tidwell
Executive Director

Health & Safety

Beat the Heat!

Know the signs of Dehydration, Heat Exhaustion, and Heat Stroke.

Dehydration

Dehydration occurs when the body uses or loses more fluid than it takes in. Anyone can become dehydrated, but the condition is more serious for infants, children, and older adults.

With aging, the body's fluid reserve becomes smaller and its ability to hold on to water is reduced. Older people are less likely to feel thirsty, and may also have conditions such as diabetes and dementia, or take medications, that increase the risk.

Drinking more fluids usually fixes mild to moderate dehydration, but severe dehydration needs medical treatment right away.

Signs of Dehydration in Adults

  • Extreme thirst
  • Urinating less, or dark-colored urine
  • Tiredness
  • Dizziness
  • Increased confusion
  • Sunken eyes or cheeks

Long-Term Care Ombudsman

The ombudsman does not regulate long-term care facilities, but does work with providers, residents, their families, and others to resolve problems and concerns.

As a friend or relative, you may have questions about obtaining services from resources outside the facility.

An ombudsman can:

  • Provide information regarding the admission process to long-term care facilities
  • Help clarify nursing home, assisted living, or home-for-the-aged regulations that apply to your situation
  • Make helpful referrals to other agencies
  • Promote healthy and realistic attitudes of residents and families toward nursing homes
  • Respect requests for anonymity
  • Act as a resource for staff training needs
