IRVINE, Calif.—Silverado has announced news on two new communities. Silverado Red Rock Memory Care Community in Las Vegas, Nev., has been licensed and is expected to begin welcoming residents in mid-March. In addition, Silverado Frederick in Frederick, Md., has been given a projected mid-2022 opening date.
These two additions will increase the number of states the company operates communities in from six to eight, with Nevada and Maryland joining California, Texas, Washington, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Virginia.
Both new communities share the same floor plan, and each will serve 72 residents. At Silverado, each community is designed to serve the unique needs of its memory-impaired residents, including many unique innovations pioneered by the company. While the community buildings share many similarities, the surroundings in which they sit are truly unique and representative of the communities they serve.
The Red Rock community is located a few miles west of the Las Vegas strip and views Nevada’s Spring Mountains. Residents are never far from the lively activities and desert beauty for which the area is known. Administrator Penny Munn, who brings years of experience and familiarity with the senior living market in Las Vegas, has helped to build up a waiting list of families eager to move their loved ones into the community as soon as its doors open.
Located among the sprawling meadows in the countryside east of the main city, the Frederick community sits next to a golf course less than a mile from the Monocacy River. The town of Frederick is rich in history and located near many historic civil war sites. Senior regional administrator Katie Hilburn, whose compassion and dedication helped grow Silverado Alexandria into a standout community, will be overseeing the buildup and opening of the new Frederick community.
Each of the new communities’ locations will provide exceptional options for outings and related activities for their Nexus® early-stage residents. From the Latin word for “connections,” Nexus comprises five pillars of activities in which Memory Care residents will participate. Academic research has validated that participants in Nexus at Silverado showed a statistically significant 60 percent improvement in cognition compared to those without such treatment. As partners in care, many of you have seen the wonderful results Nexus residents experience. These new communities will provide a wonderful care option for local individuals with mild cognitive impairment.
