Memory Care
What is Memory Care?
At Aegis Living, we have developed innovative care programs for residents with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia to best meet their unique needs. Our Life’s Neighborhood ® program is designed to help ease the symptoms of dementia and to celebrate the life of the individual. We provide personalized care to meet the resident wherever they are in the progression of their memory loss. Our secured memory care wing is modified to keep our residents safe, healthy, active, and comfortable to give our families peace of mind.
We don’t focus on what they forget, but rather, connecting them with the feelings of joy and happiness that they will never forget.
