Care Types
Mind & Memory Care Levels
- Our Mind & Memory Plan is for residents whose care needs consist primarily of cueing and reminders. Residents are appropriate for our Mind & Memory Care Plan if they generally exhibit mild cognitive impairment and no or limited behaviors such as aggression or resistance to care.
- 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
We stay ahead of health changes with customized care plans and on-site medical services to help those with memory impairment age well. Our skilled care providers take great pride in tailoring care to individual needs so our residents can maintain feelings of independence and dignity at every stage.
Our residents also spend their days participating in programs that have been researched and designed for socialization and cognitive skills support. Our programming teams leverage the best of our greater community and other resources to provide experiences that engage our residents. Making and displaying art in our formal gallery, weekly barre exercise classes for strength and balance, cooking demonstrations and virtual vacation that showcase faraway places and live jazz music connect our residents to their interests and each other.
