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
Safety, of course, comes first. Built specifically for residents living with dementia, our community has a secured entrances and exits and enclosed walking areas. This helps our residents enjoy a sense of independence as we strive to help them securely explore their surroundings, including the outdoor gardening area and courtyard. You’ll also have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency.
A Warm and Welcoming Atmosphere
Memory care residents thrive in a comforting and familiar environment, so our community features cozy spaces to re-create the kind of home life they’ve always enjoyed. Our easy-to-navigate floor plans and extra details, such as soothing wall colors, provide the comforts of home, so residents feel comfortable and not overwhelmed. Our private apartments have large windows with plenty of natural light and private bathrooms, too. And we're here to help families make our residents’ apartments familiar with suggestions for what to bring on move-in day.
Consistent Care Assignments
We don’t just hire great people; we invest in quality training and education to help keep our staff up-to-date on the latest dementia care techniques. In addition to our programming, we provide practical help, like managing medications, helping with daily tasks like dressing, and even assisting with dining. Through it all, we focus on the individual, uplifting each of our residents, and helping them live their best senior living life. We also strive to provide the same care partners to your loved one on a regular basis whenever possible to promote familiarity and relationship-rich care.
Enriching Activities
The Clare Bridge Daily Path is an evidence-based practice that offers a gentle daily structure of six planned programs. These programs include engaging activities that provide stimulation and challenge but remain failure-free. And our memory care environments feature areas of the community set up for safe engagement in household tasks like gardening, kitchen work, and handyman work.
Personalized Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
Our memory care residents benefit from the years we’ve spent developing exceptional care for those living with early, middle and late stages of Alzheimer's and other dementia. Your loved one will get a customized care plan to meet their specific needs. We work with each of our residents and their families to learn personal histories, preferences and more, and then we use what we learn to help each member of our community thrive.
