Four Pillars of Support

Evidence-based cognitive stimulation therapy programming, Monday through Friday, 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, including:

• Discussion of current events, life experiences, hobbies, travel and prior careers
• Word games, puzzles, crosswords, and online activities
• Serenity spaces: garden, library, and chapel
• Music, singing, and percussion instruments
• Creative activities: clay sculpting, painting, drawing, cooking
• Movement: putting green, dancing, shuffleboard, corn hole
• Service projects for community organizations

All in a dementia-friendly environment with thoughtful adjustments to color, light, accessibility, familiarity and reduced sensory overload.

We will serve delicious, healthy snacks and lunches based on the MIND diet which focuses on nutrient-dense foods that combat inflammation.

Family members will benefit from strong caregiver support programs with multiple options for meeting times and venues, both in-person and virtual.

Caregivers will have access to:

• Personalized case-management for their loved one
• Dementia resource assistance and activity boxes for home use
• Cognitive educational events with healthcare professionals
• Cognitive stimulation therapy classes

As a result, caregivers can continue to work, take breaks with confidence, manage personal needs, develop coping strategies, and co-create personalized dementia life plans with their case manager.
