Memory Care Facilities at Acts: Dementia & Memory Care Units
Welcome to Acts’ memory care facilities designed to provide compassionate and comprehensive support for individuals facing dementia and memory-related challenges. Within our secure memory care neighborhoods, we strive to create a safe and enriching community where residents can thrive, and families can find peace of mind.
What is Memory Care?
Memory care centers provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals experiencing cognitive changes of many kinds, including Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. These facilities provide 24/7 supervision, assistance with activities of daily living, structured routines, cognitive stimulation, and specialized programming aimed at enhancing quality of life and preserving remaining cognitive functioning.
Finding a Memory Care Facility Near You
Find the best memory care unit for you by researching online, asking for your doctor’s recommendation, or support groups. Take the time to visit facilities to assess the environment, meet the staff, and learn about the services offered. Ask questions about staff training, safety measures, activities and therapies provided, and the philosophy of care. Also ask how the facility addresses challenging behaviors, and how they involve families in the care process.
As you research dementia care facilities in your area, ask two key questions:
- Does the facility offer a range of evidence-based services specifically designed for those experiencing cognitive change?
- If the facility is a skilled nursing center, does it have a 5-start Medicare rating like ours at Acts do? Those with 5 stars—the highest rating— are considered to have far above average quality.
