If you’re looking for quality memory care in Arizona, you’ll be pleased to learn about all that Solterra Senior Living at Lakeside offers. Here are a few things that our memory care residents are provided with at our Lakeside community.
Gardens Program
This program was created specifically for older adults who are experiencing memory loss so that they can enjoy their lives to the fullest while remaining safe. We know how serious memory impairment can be, and with this program, we’re able to create the safest environment possible to ensure residents can live comfortably. Residents enrolled in this program live in private apartment homes and can enjoy well-appointed community areas such as the secured garden. This beautiful outdoor space allows memory care residents to enjoy nature while being able to roam freely from indoor to outdoor settings.
The Gardens Program also includes an activities program designed according to the interests and abilities of the residents. These activities help to enrich our memory-impaired resident’s lives while also giving them a way to expand their horizons. Residents can remain engaged through our activities and special events and learn to manage the side effects of their disease.
Family Support
Our residents aren’t the only ones affected by their memory loss. Family and friends also have to learn how to cope with this new reality, as their loved one begins to forget things. This can cause a wide range of emotions for everyone involved, which is why Solterra Senior Living in Lakeside provides our residents’ families with support throughout their stay.
Through education, support, and healthy communication, we help families cope with the challenges associated with this disease. We keep each family in the loop throughout their loved one’s treatment and activity involvement, which can give them a better idea of the progress their loved one is making. It also provides families with peace of mind knowing their loved ones are enjoying their lives. Families also benefit greatly from being well-educated on the disease itself, which is why we aim to educate families as much as possible. It can help give them better expectations for their loved ones and provide more understanding.
Specialty Staff
At the Lakeside memory care community, we recognize that it requires a level of expertise to work with memory care residents. Our highly qualified care team is specifically trained in the disease process associated with memory-related illnesses like Alzheimer’s and dementia. They train to better understand both the emotional and physical distress that these residents often experience due to the challenges of their illness. With compassion, our staff works to enrich residents’ lives while working to maintain their health and safety.
