Alta Ridge Assisted Living
Alta Ridge Assisted Living offers assisted living and memory care in Sandy, Utah, in the Hillborough Heights neighborhood. The community opened in 2015. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks, while memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having both care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move elsewhere.
Residents can choose studios, one-bedroom apartments, or two-bedroom apartments. A studio offers one private space, while a two-bedroom layout can work for two people moving together. The starting price is $3,100 per month, giving families an initial figure for planning monthly costs. Respite care supports short stays when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover, and pets are allowed.
Staffing is available around the clock, so help is present at all hours. An on-site beauty salon and barbershop gives residents access to grooming services within the community, while rehabilitation services provide therapy as part of the available care. Transportation is available for trips beyond the community, and special diets are accommodated. A Walk Score of 56 places the area in the somewhat walkable range, so some errands can be done on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to manage certain nearby errands independently.
