Get in Touch with UsAbout Memory Care
What is memory care? An Alzheimer’s & Dementia Memory Care Community is for people with middle to late-stage memory conditions. Often located within larger assisted living facilities or in smaller residential settings, memory care facilities offer special needs and dementia care. They may also have the actual building set up to enhance memory functions and decrease potential confusion for memory care residents. These secure environments often have additional safety features and clearly designated walking paths.
Activities focused on memory recall from past experiences are staples of activities in most memory care communities. While specific amenities, activities, and service options vary depending on location, the memory care units in many facilities help their memory care residents stay engaged and active in a structured environment with communal dining, brain games, art classes, music, physical therapy, fitness classes, and many other opportunities for social interaction.
Patients who are appropriate for this setting are usually those who are already residing in an assisted living environment and have begun forgetting how to perform daily activities of life or who have been getting lost, wandering about, or going into other residents’ rooms thinking it was their own. A daily routine in a structured environment has been proven to help cope with the early stages of memory loss.

Memory Care Facilities Nationwide FAQ
How Do I Know Memory Care Is Right for My Loved One?
Many families struggle with the decision to put loved ones in nursing homes or other assisted living facilities, but sometimes, it’s the greatest favor they can do. Memory Care is a specialized type of assisted living care that focuses on people with Alzheimer’s and other types of memory loss, such as dementia. Here, residents engage in structured activities by specially trained staff designed to assist those with memory problems.
Memory Care Communities usually have much fewer residents than assisted living, allowing for a lower staff-to-resident ratio. Some Assisted Living Communities have designated wings for Memory Care programs. This makes it easier if one spouse requires assisted living or independent living services while the other needs Memory Care. The rooms in Memory Care are usually a little smaller to make it more manageable for your loved one. Of course, before making your decision, you can tour the residential memory care units in person and meet with the community staff.

Ageless Care Solutions was born from the heartfelt desire to provide reliable and compassionate care for seniors. Our founder, Latoya Hoosang, was inspired to create this service after recognizing the need for assistance in caring for her own mother. Witnessing firsthand the challenges faced by working families in managing their busy schedules while ensuring their loved ones’ well-being, Latoya envisioned a solution that would alleviate these burdens and provide much-needed support.
