Alzheimer's Care
With private accommodations, an enclosed courtyard, activities to stimulate cognitive function and a staff trained to work with Alzheimer's and dementia residents safely, patiently and with individualized care, our community provides a safe place for your loved on to live and thrive.
One reason they thrive is because of our family style dining. Just like families gathering around the dinner table at home, our caregivers and our residents sit side by side, pass the beans and enjoy their meals together. When family members come for a visit, we simply pull up a chair for them and everyone breaks bread and enjoys the moment together.
Our residents also thrive due to the benefits of our Waves program. Featured in numerous publications, Waves is a water aerobics-based program designed for our residents with dementia or Alzheimer's need. Led in our heated indoor pool, giving Alzheimer's and dementia residents a safe and fun way to exercise. Stimulating cognitive and cardiovascular function while increasing appetite and lowering agitation, Waves also provides the perfect opportunity for our residents to bond with their caregivers as they enter the water and work through the exercises together.
