- Our Mind & Memory I Plan is for residents whose care needs consist primarily of a minimal level of physical assistance with activities of daily living, and minimal levels of cognitive impairment.
- Our Mind & Memory II Plan is for residents whose care needs require a moderate amount of physical assistance with several activities of daily living, and who generally exhibit moderate cognitive impairment.
- Our Mind & Memory III Plan is for residents whose care needs require a substantial amount of physical assistance with several activities of daily living, and who generally exhibit severe cognitive impairment and/or associated behaviors.
- Our Mind & Memory IV Plan is for residents who have extensive needs, for example: a need for total care with one or more activities of daily living, or a substantial amount of assistance is warranted on a daily basis.
- Our Mind & Memory V Plan is for residents who need total assistance with all aspects of care, as well as usage of a mechanical or electrical lift for transfers on an ongoing basis. They may also require extensive emotional/behavioral support.
Personalized, needs-based care to support individual abilities
Genuinely caring for someone means always wanting to do the absolute best for them, which is why we tailor our care to their precise needs while empowering them to feel as independent as possible. Our associates receive advanced training and provide loving assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing and dressing, with the utmost dignity.
Our residents also spend their days in award-winning, holistic programs designed to address cognitive skills, provide a sense of purpose and help them enjoy each new day. Off-site trips and offerings that harness our many relationships with schools and organizations within our greater community are a highlight. Our residents also enjoy therapeutic gardening programs with Green City Growers, giving back, Creative Corner arts activities and social hours with live music that help continue their routines.
