Family Tree of West Point, a 39-bed campus on North 3150 West run by Wasatch Senior Living, is the one local address for short-term respite in Davis County's fastest-growing suburb. West Point holds roughly 1,011 residents aged 65 or older out of about 13,300 total, a city that still skews young. 1 community arranges temporary stays of a week to a few weeks, with a furnished room, daily care, and overnight staffing included; Family Tree covers both assisted living and memory care.
Families call about a West Point short stay when whoever manages daily caregiving needs travel or surgery recovery time, when a parent is leaving Intermountain Layton Hospital but is not yet steady enough at home, or when the household wants firsthand experience at Family Tree before any permanent commitment. The short-stay room is woven into Family Tree's assisted-living or memory-care section rather than a separate structure, so a guest's week there reflects how the community actually runs.
Inside a Family Tree Short Stay
From arrival, the respite schedule at Family Tree includes dining-room meals, medication management, bathing and dressing help, an activity calendar, and overnight staffing, the same engagement long-term residents receive. Family Tree carries both care levels under one roof, significant in a one-community city: a guest with dementia and a guest needing assisted-living support can both find a place here.
Memory-care beds at a 39-bed building book faster and turn over more slowly than assisted-living ones, so a West Point family planning a memory-care short stay should start the search earlier than they might expect. Booking floor, per-day rate, and open rooms all shift with occupancy; two weeks is a typical Davis County starting minimum, but current confirmation matters for any specific dates.
Pricing and Who Pays
Family Tree charges short stays per day, not at the monthly rate on this page. Davis County's assisted-living respite rate sits around $150 to $195 daily in 2026, and memory-care bookings at Family Tree carry a higher per-day charge. The daily amount often exceeds a prorated monthly equivalent because the building resets a room after each brief stay.
In West Point, Medicare covers none of a Family Tree short stay. The one Medicare provision using the word respite applies only to inpatient admissions for patients enrolled in a hospice program, an unrelated benefit. Utah Medicaid waivers fund qualifying long-term residents, not brief private bookings. VA assistance and some long-term-care policies can offset part of the daily amount; both deserve a check before the family assumes the full cost is theirs.
Why West Point Families Book Here
Family Tree keeps an older adult within five miles of Intermountain Layton Hospital's care team, close enough for follow-up appointments without leaving Davis County. For a primary caregiver, a planned West Point stay delivers a genuine break, with meals and overnight supervision covered. A week or two inside Family Tree also answers what a walkthrough cannot: how staff engage on a routine afternoon, whether the pace of the day suits the person. Short stays frequently convert to permanent arrangements when the experience resolves what had felt uncertain.
Talking Through a West Point Respite Search
Family Tree of West Point is the city's single address, so the search narrows to timing and care level. Open rooms, the current daily charge, and whether the memory-care side can place a guest on specific dates change with occupancy and rarely appear in public listings.
A local advisor confirms what Family Tree holds available before a family commits, most useful when a memory-care need or a fixed discharge date is already in play. Talk it through to get a current West Point picture before any plans are set.
