Memory Care Program
The Memory Care Program has been designed
specifically to provide comfort and security
in a home-like environment to seniors with Alzheimer's
disease or other memory impairments. Our program
supports each resident's existing capabilities
while reaffirming dignity and self-esteem. Every
aspect of the Memory Care Program has been designed
to meet the special needs of the memory-impaired
resident.
Special
attention has been given to physical building
layout, safety and decor. The facility is decorated
to provide a soothing, calming atmosphere. The
unit boasts a private dining and recreation
area that is dedicated to the special needs
of the residents. Modified activity and food
service programs focus on preferences, abilities
and most importantly, maintaining independence.
Our
staff is specially recruited and trained to
handle the specialized needs of the residents.
Our program coordinator is dedicated to overseeing
the day-to-day operations of the unit.
The
program philosophy of the Memory Care Program
aligns closely with that of the Alzheimer's
Association's Guidelines for Dignity. A primary
element of the programming is the concept of
"personalized" care to meet each resident's
specific needs. This concept of customizing
services to meet the needs of the residents
begins with the admission process, where the
staff, the resident, the resident's family and
the attending physician all play a role in determining
the resident's needs and develop a detailed
plan of care.
