Our staff is trained to not only assist in daily activities of living, but also handle specific needs to those with memory issues. They understand how the disease manifests, how to respond to disruptive changes in behavior, and how to communicate with not only the resident, but family.
We understand how important your loved one is to you and we are confident that we can provide the best quality of care!
OUR PHILOSOPHY:
Bottom line.... getting to know and connecting with your loved one.
Lets face it, moving to a new home can be scary for you and your loved one with cognitive issues. Getting to know each and every individual is key in the care of your family member. No one is the same with dementia and each person's needs vary. Being in a smaller community such as ours, brings on a higher level of one on one contact and therefore promotes this interaction. This increases the comfort level of your loved one, which therefore helps aid in our staff's ability to work on each individual memory care needs.
Our staff is a team. Everyone works together so we are fully focused on providing each with the individual care they need.
