Memory Care at Assisted Living: Supporting Your Loved Ones with Dementia

February 22, 2023
memory care at assisted living

Deciding to seek long-term care for a loved one can be difficult, but if your loved one has dementia, memory care at assisted living facilities may be the ideal solution. Here are some ways memory care can benefit your loved one and make their life more fulfilling.

Comprehensive Care for a Range of Symptoms

Dementia affects more than just memory, so the best memory care programs address a variety of functional impairments. In addition to memory loss, individuals with dementia may experience changes in thinking, speech, perception, emotions, and behavior.

To help address these issues, memory care facilities offer opportunities for patients to develop daily living skills, receive counseling and speech therapy, and enhance their cognitive and speaking abilities. American Grand assisted living in Neenah, Wisconsin, provides all-encompassing memory care.

Engaging and Therapeutic Activities

Did you know that certain activities, like music therapy, can help activate different parts of the brain in people with dementia? Memory care facilities offer specialized activities designed to meet the specific cognitive needs of individuals with dementia rather than just providing entertainment.

Seniors with dementia may become agitated when participating in challenging activities, but the proper intervention can keep them occupied and engaged at the right time.

Safe and Encouraging Environment

Memory care centers provide a safe environment that minimizes the risk of wandering, allowing residents to maintain independence and reduce confusion.

The layout of these facilities promotes safety and encourages outdoor activities, and with 24-hour monitoring, residents have access to professional care at all times. Family members can have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in good hands, and residents can feel at home with personalized rooms and floor plans.

Physical Safety and Assistance

Physical safety is a top priority in memory care facilities, where staff work to prevent residents from straying and putting themselves in harm’s way. Additionally, the staff is available daily to help residents with everyday tasks like dressing, bathing, and grooming to maintain their independence and quality of life.

Personalized Dining for Nutritional Well-Being

Memory care facilities provide personalized dining experiences, with menus tailored to residents’ nutritional needs and preferences. With three meals daily in a supportive environment, residents can enjoy meals and social interaction in a dignified and independent setting.

In conclusion, American Grand offers high-quality memory care at assisted living that can improve the safety, health, and overall well-being of individuals with dementia. American Grand is the right choice if you’re looking for a supportive and caring assisted living community in the Fox Valley area of Wisconsin.
