Our memory care offers a safe, uniquely designed environment for residents with a focus on improving quality of life, reducing confusion, and preventing wandering with an emergency alert system, and secure outdoor spaces. The memory care wing is part of the assisted living facility with extra measures in place to meet the needs of residents with memory impairment.
We have dedicated health & wellness and activities staff who receive additional training to assist with direction and oversight of daily tasks and leisure activities due to cognitive decline, disorientation, wandering, and altered sleep patterns.
Our memory wing is a secure unit with features to heighten the safety of our residents.
Because of the specialized staff training and resources required to provide high-quality memory care, memory care typically costs more than other types of residential care. The staff check in with residents more frequently and provide extra structure and support to help them navigate their day with enhanced safety measures to meet the needs of those with memory impairment.
We believe in providing quality care for each individual resident. Sometimes that means using a different approach for one resident than we would another.
Activities on the memory wing include exercises, games, crafts, music, and walks along the enclosed outdoor walking path. It's our goal to get to know each resident for who they are and incorporating their individual needs and likes into our care.
