Our kids are very generous. I think they're relieved that we're here in a secure place that they feel good about. They're not as burdened by worrying about us if something happens.

Common Questions About Memory Care

Memory care is specifically designed to enhance the quality of life for individuals dealing with cognitive challenges resulting from Alzheimer’s or other dementia-related conditions. Our memory care lifestyle offers tailored levels of support and safety that addresses unique requirements.

Our compassionate team members cultivate a warm yet professional rapport with your loved one, taking time to understand likes, dislikes, and preferred routines. This genuine relationship builds trust, giving your loved one a sense of support and security which can, in some cases, minimize behavioral issues and medication needs.

“Dementia” is a term used to describe a group of cognitive-related symptoms like memory decline, impaired critical thinking, and reasoning which can significantly affect an individual's quality of life. One specific form of dementia is Alzheimer's disease, a progressive and degenerative brain disorder characterized by the gradual loss of function. This process initially leads to the loss of recent memories and new learning, and over time, it can also affect older memories.

No, you do not! Individuals can be directly admitted to memory care at Querencia.
