In the United States alone, over 16 million people deal with cognitive impairments like dementia and Alzheimer’s every day. For those facing cognitive decline, daily tasks like eating or bathing can be increasingly difficult, making living alone challenging and, at times, unsafe.
Our Memory Care program at Minnehaha is designed to give residents with cognitive impairments the chance to live fulfilling lives while providing support and stability. We offer structured routines and custom care plans that allow residents to maintain a sense of normalcy without sacrificing their health.
For residents with cognitive impairments, a structured life can significantly benefit their quality of life. We’ve carefully developed a roster of activities for our Memory Care residents that allow them to engage with the community and maintain their individuality.
We work with every resident to develop a customized care plan that suits everyone’s individual needs. This plan includes getting to know our residents and their families personally so we can offer support that resonates with them. From our residents’ values to physical needs, we note all defining factors to ensure our residents are properly cared for.
At Minnehaha, we know that adapting to changing situations is vital to serving our community members best. Our services are flexible, and individual care plans can always be updated to meet and anticipate our residents’ needs.
If you’re looking for a safe place for your loved one experiencing cognitive decline, Minnehaha’s Memory Care program may be an excellent option. We recommend meeting with one of our registered nurses to determine what level of care will suit your loved one best.
