ALZHEIMER'S & DEMENTIA CARE

The Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care program is comprised of two discrete units for residents based on their cognitive abilities and behavior. Both units feature a specialized interdisciplinary team of medical professionals including physicians who are board certified in geriatric medicine and psychiatrists who are board certified in geriatric psychiatry. Working together, they provide individualized care that enhances the quality of life for each resident by maximizing functioning and minimizing frustration.

Our distinctive Therapeutic Recreation Program is designed to build self-confidence and enrich lives through social interaction, mental stimulation, creativity, expression, satisfaction and fun. Activities for each individual are based on their unique interests, cognition and physical abilities, and are managed by licensed therapists and recreation professionals.

Each unit in the Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care program features protected entrances and exits to safeguard residents, and safety equipment to keep them from harm.
