Aging-in-place may be right for some families who have the time and resources to provide 24/7 specialized care. Yet, more often than not, living at home doesn’t provide the enriching environment that individuals with dementia require. It’s common for seniors who age in place to feel bored, isolated or unsupported at home.
In contrast, memory care communities offer daily opportunities to meet every resident’s physical, intellectual, social and spiritual dimensions. With highly trained staff, a secure campus and memory-enhancing activities, individuals with dementia can truly thrive.
