Overview of Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing

Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing provides nursing home, nursing care, and skilled nursing, along with assisted living, home care, hospice care, memory care, and respite care in Logan, Utah. Assisted living helps with daily tasks while a resident maintains a private living space, while skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision, respite care supports short stays, home care brings assistance into a person’s home, and hospice care focuses on comfort at the end of life.

Several care levels are available, so a resident whose needs grow may be able to move to a different level of care without leaving the community. Short term rehabilitation provides a time limited stay focused on recovery, and outpatient therapies allow therapy without a residential admission. Home Based Care, Sunshine Home Health, Sunshine Hospice Care, Sunshine Cares, and Caregiver Support are also part of the program offerings.

Sunshine Terrace Skilled Nursing has 172 beds, accommodating more residents, staff, and usually more programming than a smaller community. An 85 / 100 Walk Score places the area in the very walkable range, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby shops, pharmacies, or cafes independently. Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay: Medicare applies to short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid can help cover a longer stay when savings are limited, and private pay means paying directly for care. The combination of several care levels and respite care may suit a resident whose needs may change over time or a family caregiver who needs short term support.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Utah

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Utah?

Assisted living in Utah supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Utah Medicaid cover memory care?

Utah Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Utah) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?
