As our loved ones age, cognitive challenges such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease can become more prevalent – and challenging. Many assisted living homes, like Kenwood Care, offer specialized memory care services designed to meet the unique needs of residents with cognitive impairments.
Can I Get Memory Care Support in Assisted Living?
Unlike standard assisted living, memory care provides structured routines, cognitive therapies, and a secure environment that helps residents maintain their quality of life. The goal is to offer both physical and emotional support, fostering a sense of safety and well-being.
At Kenwood Care, our team offers exceptional memory care support within its assisted living services. We regularly address the needs of residents with memory-related challenges in the following ways:
- Level 3 Care Classification: Kenwood Care homes are classified as Level 3 care facilities, meaning they are equipped to handle more complex care needs, including advanced memory care. Residents also have access to top-rated memory care specialists and Alzheimer’s and Dementia medical professionals, ensuring that they receive the highest quality care available.
- Personalized Care Plans: Each resident receives a personalized care plan that is specifically designed to address their individual needs. This includes cognitive support, assistance with daily activities and living tasks, and regular health assessments to monitor and manage their conditions.
- Specialized Programs and Activities: Our compassionate and dedicated team provides a variety of activities that are specifically designed to stimulate cognitive function and promote social engagement. Activities such as memory games, music therapy, arts and crafts, and storytelling sessions are not only enjoyable but also therapeutic, helping residents maintain their cognitive abilities.
- Safe and Supportive Environment: Here, facilities are designed with your loved one’s safety in mind. Our secure assisted living homes ensure that residents with memory issues are protected from risks such as wandering. Additionally, the layout and design of each Howard County home promotes independence while reducing confusion and anxiety for those with memory impairments.
