Waters Edge Village

Waters Edge Village is a senior living community in Muncie, Indiana, offering short-term rehabilitation, memory care, long-term care, respite care, hospice care, and outpatient therapy services.

Short-term rehabilitation is designed for those recovering from stroke, cardiovascular difficulties, orthopedic surgery, and other debilitating conditions, with the goal of helping participants return home safely. Care includes physical, occupational, and speech/language therapies, along with support from doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers. The community features a Road to Recovery program in which the interdisciplinary team, patient, and family meet within 72 hours of admission to establish discharge goals. Services also include wound care, fall prevention, contracture management, mobility training, and strength-building wellness programs.

The memory care program serves individuals experiencing Alzheimer's disease and other forms of memory loss through a structured, research-based approach. The person-centered, wellness-based model incorporates stimulating daily activities designed to sustain independence and promote a healthy spirit, while maintaining a secure environment where residents have a sense of belonging and meaning.

Long-term care is provided for those who struggle with daily tasks and can no longer be cared for at home due to illness, injury, frailty, or other limitations. Care is delivered by licensed nurses, specially-trained health care aides, and an interdisciplinary team under physician guidance. Services include social services, activities, and physical, occupational, and speech therapies to help residents maintain independence in home-like, cheerful settings. The community accepts private pay and Medicaid for qualified applicants.

Respite care allows family caregivers short-term relief from their responsibilities, accommodating guests who need respite services on a temporary basis or those recovering from surgery or hospitalization. Hospice and palliative care services address comfort, pain relief, and the spiritual and emotional needs of patients and families facing terminal illness, delivered through partnerships with local hospice companies and an interdisciplinary team. Outpatient therapy uses clinically-proven strategies, highly-trained therapists, and the latest technologies to promote mobility and reduce pain.
