What is Memory Care?

Memory Care is a specific form of long-term care designed to meet the needs of a person with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia or other types of memory problems. Memory Care programs are typically offered as part of an Assisted Living community’s services, but there are also standalone communities exclusively dedicated to adults with some form of dementia. These programs help to provide a safe, structured environment with set routines to lower stress for these patients, and the facility Employees provide meals and help residents with personal care tasks.
