Áegis Living Kent specializes in Memory Care and also offers Transitional Care, Respite Care, and Hospice Care. This means we can support residents through short-term stays, transitions from a hospital or rehab, ongoing memory loss care, and compassionate end-of-life support — all in one familiar setting. ### Is this community dedicated entirely to memory care? Yes. Áegis Living Kent is a memory care–only community, intentionally designed for residents living with Alzheimer's, dementia, and other forms of memory loss. From the intimate setting to the trained staff and creative redirection techniques, every detail is built around the unique needs of people with cognitive change and the families who love them. ### What apartment options are available? Áegis Living Kent offers Companion Suites, where two residents share a living space. Companion Suites can be a wonderful option for residents who enjoy company, and their shared design also makes them a more budget-friendly arrangement in our cozy, home-like memory care community. ### How does Áegis Living bill for care? Áegis Living bills for care based on what each resident actually needs, in addition to the cost of the apartment. Because needs can shift over time — especially with memory loss — your care charges are tailored rather than locked into rigid tiers. We're happy to walk you through current pricing and what's included during a personal visit. ### What does dining look like for residents with memory loss? Dining at Áegis Kent is all-day and flexible, so residents can eat when they're hungry — whether that's a late 2 p.m. lunch or a midnight snack. Menus are personalized with favorite meals from each stage of life, comforting classics, and even beloved family recipes, and residents are supported through every meal to make sure they're well nourished. ### What kinds of activities are offered? Our Life Enrichment program features over 200 monthly activities, including laughter yoga, music and art therapy, walking clubs in our landscaped gardens, theatrical performances, and virtual reality experiences. Activities are chosen with residents — not for them — so every offering feels meaningful and welcomes participation at any memory stage. ### Are pets allowed at Áegis Living Kent? Yes, pets are welcome at Áegis Living Kent. We know animals are often a cherished part of a person's identity and can bring real comfort to residents with memory loss, so we're happy to discuss your loved one's pet during the move-in conversation. ### How is safety and clinical care handled? Our team provides 24/7 care, with onsite nurses present daily to oversee health needs and coordinate with families and physicians. Combined with a secure, intimate memory care environment and staff trained in honest communication and creative redirection, residents are supported around the clock. ### Do you offer short-term or trial stays? Yes. Through our Respite Care program, families can arrange a short-term stay — which is a wonderful way to experience the community firsthand, give a family caregiver a break, or support recovery after a hospital visit. Many families use respite as a comfortable introduction before considering a longer-term move. ### What amenities can families enjoy when visiting? Families are warmly welcomed at Áegis Kent and often join loved ones for meals, activities, or time in our gardening spaces and walking paths. The community also features an onsite salon, a demo kitchen where residents have hosted pizza parties with the chef, and cozy gathering areas that make visits feel like time at home together. ## What residents and families say > Kent was the right choice because every staff member truly knows dementia.
