THE GALLOWAY RIDGE TEAM Working on a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) campus, especially in such close proximity to existing occupied spaces, required a specialized team of people familiar with their specific needs and culture.

OVERVIEW WEAVERCOOKE provided preconstruction and construction services for the Galloway Ridge Memory Care facility expansion project. This wide- ranging scope of work included their lobby and mailroom renovation and memory care expansion of nine memory care units, as well as the addition of a small nursing station, a life enrichment office, outdoor courtyard and sunroom. Both projects required partial closures and temporary barriers to keep residents safe while construction was underway. For the independent living facility, our team provided viewing areas where residents could keep up to date on construction progress. Our team also communicated proactively with residents and the facility’s nursing and building staff to minimize disruptions to residents’ daily lives.

IMPACT Galloway Ridge is growing, with a continuous need for more resources and facilities to help the residents of today and tomorrow. When residents first enter Galloway Ridge, they begin their stay in the independent living cottages. If they end up needing memory care, it’s critical that Galloway Ridge has the space to accommodate those needs so that their residents can continue to age in place, surrounded by their community and friends. When we began construction of this project, Galloway Ridge only had two units available in their existing memory care facility, and four of the beds were already reserved when we finished. Galloway Ridge’s memory care facility is home to a life enrichment coordinator, who only had a small, temporary space before renovations. Afterwards, they had their own office from which to deliver their much-needed expertise. The independent living lobby was originally built in the 1990’s, and it was not included in the 2012 campus-wide renovations and expansions. WEAVERCOOKE modernized this space with LVT floors, modern wall coverings and energy efficient LED lighting.
