Monarch Memory Care: A Specialized Approach
At the heart of our memory care philosophy is the Monarch Memory Care Program – a thoughtful model of care created for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
The monarch butterfly symbolizes the transformation and resilience experienced by those on the memory loss journey. Inspired by this, our program helps residents feel more like themselves by focusing on their personal history, strengths, and the power of routine and connection.
Monarch Memory Care is recognized by the Alzheimer’s Association® for incorporating evidence-based Dementia Care Practice Recommendations in five key areas:
- Person-centered care
- Alzheimer’s and dementia education
- Assessment and care planning
- Activities of daily living
- Behaviors and communication
Our care team includes Certified Dementia Practitioners (CDPs), providing a higher standard of training and understanding for those facing memory challenges. With a secure environment and specialized programming, we offer both safety and opportunities for meaningful engagement.
A Holistic, Engaging Lifestyle
Connection and socialization are essential for wellness, especially for those living with memory loss. Our team incorporates the National Wellness Institute’s six dimensions of wellness – emotional, physical, social, spiritual, occupational, and intellectual – into daily life. Residents participate in cognitive-based activities, small-group programs, and sensory experiences that inspire joy and preserve important life abilities.
Whether it’s a favorite song, a guided exercise class, or simply sharing a meal together, every interaction is a chance to build confidence and community.
