What is Memory Care?
Memory care provides specialized support for elderly individuals with memory-related disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and various forms of dementia. This comprehensive care includes trained personnel, and a safe, comfortable environment designed to address the challenges of memory loss while promoting the overall well-being of each resident.
Our memory care programs focus on increasing quality of life through structured activities, consistent care from familiar faces, and personalized attention. We aim to reduce the stress and confusion often experienced by individuals with memory impairments.
The Difference Between Memory Care and Assisted Living
At Kenwood, our assisted living model, which includes live-in caregivers, offers a supportive living environment for our residents. Our memory care services are designed to maintain cognitive abilities, manage behavior, and preserve dignity in an environment specifically crafted to reduce anxiety and uncertainty.
