## Summary

Transitional Care at Aegis Living is a specialized care level designed for people experiencing early memory loss who remain largely social and independent but benefit from structure, reminders, and gentle support. Residents live in assisted living apartments with full access to community amenities and friendships while receiving dementia-trained care available 24/7. The program bridges the gap between standard assisted living and secured memory care, allowing residents to age in place within the same community without disruptive moves as their needs evolve.

Aegis Living operates 23 communities across Washington, California, and Nevada. Transitional Care combines personalized support with safety oversight: dementia-trained team members provide cueing, medication management, wayfinding, and compassionate redirection when confusion arises. Onsite nurses monitor health and adjust care plans as needs change. Discreet safety technology—motion sensors, medical-alert pendants, and visitor check-in systems—adds reassurance without restricting freedom. Couples can remain together even when care needs differ.

The program is ideal when a loved one is missing medications, repeating questions, or feeling anxious alone but does not yet require a secured memory care environment. If symptoms progress, residents transition seamlessly to Life's Neighborhood Memory Care with the same trusted team, maintaining routines and friendships.
