Memory Care

Living with Alzheimer’s or other memory related impairments is an intensely personal journey. While the loss of memories can be one part of that journey, too many people become disconnected from their lives, loved ones and themselves along the way. At Legend Senior Living®, we strive to reinforce your loved one’s sense of self. Specially trained associates will leverage years of experience with memory related impairments to identify where your loved one is on their journey, and use that knowledge to meet them at their point of need with caring support and comfort.

Your loved one will experience a unique blend of homelike comfort, innovative care and experienced, personal attention. Services are tailored to their unique needs, providing the support they need to thrive. Base services include:

•    24-hour, specially trained staff
•    Licensed nurse
•    Medication assistance
•    Tailored therapeutic and recreational experiences
•    Individualized service planning
•    All meals and snacks, with assistance if needed, through Gold Leaf Dining
•    All laundry and housekeeping services
•    Family and community support groups

Upon request, additional services can provide personal assistance with:

•    Bathing
•    Dressing
•    Hygiene
•    Incontinence management

What can I expect moving my loved one to Memory Care?

We’ll engage your loved one in meaningful activities that will lift their spirits, stimulate memories and provide a sense of value, connection and purpose. Activities are based on your loved one’s unique life experiences, and combined with therapeutic activities and exercises that preserve sensory skills, mobility and motor function.

Innovative therapies such as our award-winning Paro Seal program, which combines robotics and bio-feedback technologies to deliver the proven benefits of animal therapy, provide powerful experiences that will help keep your loved one engaged and fulfilled. Plus, they’ll be surrounded with ever-changing interactive vignettes designed to stir memories and interests.

At Legend® Memory Care, your loved one will also enjoy an atmosphere designed with all the familiar warmth and comfort of home. Cozy common areas, beautiful outdoor spaces and fun activity areas provide opportunities for companionship, while well-appointed suites and secluded quiet rooms satisfy the need for privacy and personal space.
