What Is Memory Care?
Our memory care neighborhood is a specialized, secure environment dedicated exclusively to individuals living with dementia, Alzheimer’s, or Parkinson’s.
We believe in a “Do With, Not Do For” philosophy, focusing on each person’s remaining abilities rather than their losses. This relationship-based approach means our caregivers truly know your loved one, adapting care plans to foster daily moments of success.
Your family gains a reliable partner focused on dignity and engagement. Here is a glimpse of what our comprehensive memory care includes:
- 24-hour support from specialized caregivers
- Personalized, adaptive care plans
- Chef-prepared, dignified dining experiences
- Secure outdoor courtyard
- Engaging life enrichment programs
- Housekeeping and laundry services
The Eight Core Principles of Memory Care
Personal Care
Your loved one may need help with their personal care or activities of daily living. We’ll provide compassionate assistance with personal hygiene (bathing, grooming, and oral care), dressing, eating, incontinence management, and transfers (such as moving from seated to standing and getting in and out of bed).
Social Interaction
Happy hours, celebrations, barbecues, and ice cream socials are a few examples of our group activities that can create a sense of joy and community. We will encourage your loved one to participate in our programming to help them make connections, stimulate socialization, and give them an enhanced sense of meaning, purpose and belonging.
Emotional Support
Our attentive care team supports your loved one emotionally with companionship and affection while focusing on the highest standards of safety, dignity, and respect. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your loved one is in great hands.
Physical Activity
Exercise is beneficial for both physical and mental health and can improve quality of life for people in all stages of dementia. We offer physical activities such as walking, gardening, dancing, and sports with the aim of improving fitness, building strength, and providing fun for your loved one.
Mental Stimulation
Our program will engage your loved one in meaningful activities to stimulate cognitive function while addressing individual needs. Playing games, working with puzzles, or doing practical activities (such as writing or folding laundry) are some of the ways we can help your loved one engage their brain.
Life-Enrichment Activities
Our activity program, specially designed for people with dementia, strives to maximize independence while focusing on individual strengths and abilities. Your loved one will safely engage in activities such as picnics, walks through the courtyard, cards, and games. From book clubs to movie nights, we strive to keep your loved one informed and engaged, experiencing a meaningful quality of life every day.
Artistic Expression
We encourage your loved one to express themselves through music, crafts, decorative arts and performing arts. Whether through drawing, painting, dancing, or singing, they will experience the pleasure and fulfillment that comes from creating.
Good Nutrition
Your loved one will enjoy well-balanced entrees made from scratch and served table-side by our friendly servers. Our dining program offers restaurant-style menu choices with regional and traditional cuisine in mind, served in an atmosphere that encourages independence. We welcome and encourage you to join your loved one in our dining experience.
Experience Our Dedicated Approach
We don’t just manage cognitive changes. We actively create an environment where your loved one can flourish.
