What Our Memory Care Community Can Offer You
Just because someone you love is experiencing memory loss, it doesn't mean that they should have to sacrifice their quality of life. Our residents spend their days in a secure environment, surrounded by familiar people who encourage them to enjoy life, experience feelings of belonging and purpose, and help to maintain their current skills through our daily path of engagement.
Here are just a few of the ways we help the seniors in our memory care programs make the most of this season of their lives:

A Secure Setting
With secured exits and entries and an enclosed courtyard and garden, we strive to help keep our residents secure while encouraging a sense of independence to explore. Our community is built from the ground up for the specific needs of those living with dementia. We offer features like spaces decorated like home, way-finding cues and large circular paths designed to lead residents to areas of activity. You’ll also have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency.
A Warm and Welcoming Atmosphere
Our residents enjoy the comforts of home with attentive service and convenient amenities designed specifically for them. Private apartments, filled with natural light, are a place for your loved one to be surrounded by the comfort of their own familiar furnishings, treasured family photos and keepsakes. Common areas are elegant, spacious and very inviting. Our courtyard, walking paths and patio are enclosed so our residents can explore their surroundings, yet remain comfortable and secure.
Consistent Care Assignments
Our team is ready and willing to help your loved one perform daily tasks like dressing and bathing while helping to maintain their health and mental wellness. Offering this combination of support and independence provides your family member with the respect and dignity they deserve while also giving them the care they need. We also strive to provide consistent care assignments so that your loved one is cared for by the same associates whenever possible. This helps form a relationship-rich partnership between your family member and their care provider, which in turn promotes regularity and familiarity.
Enriching Activities
With gentle guidance and visual reminders, we provide a secure space with programs that meet your family member’s skill level and allow them to flourish even with advanced expressions of the disease. The Clare Bridge Daily Path gives each resident purpose and a sense of security that they are right where they need to be. You’ll see our residents enjoying themselves with such activities as exercise classes, dancing, gardening, golfing, karaoke, pet therapy and sing-alongs.

Personalized Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
Deeply rooted in person-centered partnerships, our Alzheimer’s and dementia care focuses on sustaining feelings of belonging, purpose and security while seeking to preserve a sense of self throughout all stages of the disease. Our care associates get to know your loved one’s histories, routines and preferences. This helps us offer them a sense of stability and comfort that they are well-known where they live.

Assisted living communities are designed for seniors who are relatively independent, but they need some assistance with daily tasks, like bathing, dressing and managing medication. Assisted living is ideal for those who are looking to make the most of their retirement by living closer to other people in the same stage of life, while getting access to quality care, great onsite amenities, and interesting activities happening at the community.
Memory care communities are specifically designed for seniors living with Alzheimer's or dementia. They feature safe and secure environments where staff can closely monitor the health of the residents. You'll also find programs, activities, and events that are designed to help memory care residents work on their cognitive abilities, while also getting to enjoy passions and hobbies. Staff typically are specially trained to provide the quality care needed for seniors with memory loss.
Memory care features can vary from location to location. Sometimes they are stand-alone communities, and sometimes they are part of a larger community with more levels of care. They often include safety features like emergency alert systems, enclosed courtyards and keypad entry; personalized programming; easy-to-navigate features like color-coded hallways and spacious hallways; and accommodations for seniors in both the early and late stages of dementia.
As much as we wish there was a cure for Alzheimer’s, the best thing a memory care community can do is provide opportunities for your loved one to maintain or experience improvement in their current skills. Research has shown that living in a community can reduce the amount of medication a resident needs, increase their overall health and wellness with proper nutrition and exercise, and provide increased social interaction that leads to lower levels of depression and isolation.
The cost of memory care depends on several different factors, including location, floor plan and how much care your loved one needs. The good news is that our residents only pay for the services they actually need.
This is one of those tricky questions that only you can answer. It’s important to do your research before coming to a final decision. But we can tell you that as the disease progresses, the amount of time, energy and resources required to provide quality care will increase. This often creates more stress for the caregiver and could compromise the otherwise high quality of life your loved one could enjoy in a memory care community.
Our communities incorporate several features to help keep your loved one safe, like including emergency alert systems in each apartment. The majority of our communities also have enclosed outdoor courtyards so residents can explore in a secure environment.
Many caregivers think that a private suite is always the better option for their loved one, but research has shown the value of companionship for seniors living with Alzheimer's or dementia. Sharing an apartment with a roommate can sometimes give residents a greater sense of purpose and lead to deep and lasting friendships. Companion suites can also be more budget-friendly!
Most memory care communities provide educational materials and outreach for families exploring senior living options, but you still need to do your research. Consider what specific items are on your wish list, taking into consideration your loved one’s individual needs and any activities, treatments or accommodations that you believe is important.
