Memory Care at American Senior Communities

While a cure for Alzheimer’s disease does not yet exist, many options are available that enable those with the disease or other forms of memory loss to enjoy a higher quality of life. The progression of Alzheimer’s and the symptoms that accompany it often make it difficult for family members to continue care at home. In response, our memory care program specializing in serving each individual through their unique experience with memory loss. Our memory care is a structured, research-based program. We utilize a person-centered, wellness-based model of care that incorporates stimulating daily activities to sustain independence and promote a healthy spirit. The concept is to focus on maintaining a secure environment where residents have a sense of belonging and meaning each and every day. We offer:

• A Meaningful Day activity program that builds on four domains of wellness
• An emphasis on holistic and innovative care philosophies
• A reminiscent and dementia supportive living environment

Our memory care is a self-contained center within our communities. We surround residents with artwork and special personal items from their past to help foster a sense of belonging and cultivate feelings of security. Plants adorn the halls and pets visit frequently. This protected environment fosters dignity and supports autonomy by reducing challenges.
