THOUGHTFUL SUPPORT
Residents with Alzheimer’s and dementia benefit from a safe environment and thoughtful approach.
INDIVIDUALIZED CARE
Staff trained in dementia care support the needs of each resident with a focus on clear distinguishable choices throughout the day. We also tailor our care with mood stabilizing lavender-scented towels and aromatherapy diffusers to calm, de-stress and enhance overall mood.

LIFE-ENHANCING DESIGN
