Memory Care
Specialized Support for Seniors Living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia
Memory care communities are thoughtfully designed to serve older adults facing cognitive challenges such as Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, and other forms of memory impairment. These communities provide a secure, structured, and supportive environment where residents can maintain dignity, safety, and a better quality of life.
What Is Memory Care?
Memory care is a specialized level of senior living that offers:
- 24/7 supervision and assistance
- Safe, secure environments with alarms and wander prevention
- Staff trained specifically in dementia and cognitive decline
- Structured daily routines that reduce anxiety and confusion
- Therapeutic activities tailored to cognitive ability and emotional well-being
- Support with all activities of daily living (ADLs), including toileting, bathing, grooming, and meal assistance
The goal of memory care is not just safety, but also enrichment—providing each resident with calm, purpose-filled days.
Who Is a Good Fit for Memory Care?
This level of care is ideal for individuals who:
- Have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia
- Exhibit wandering, sundowning, or disorientation
- Are no longer safe living at home, even with in-home support
- Need help with medication management or consistent personal care
- Require a routine-based, closely monitored environment
Family caregivers often feel overwhelmed trying to meet these needs alone—memory care can provide relief, reassurance, and stability.
How We Help Families
At Personal Touch Placement Services, we work closely with families to evaluate their loved one’s cognitive condition, behavioral needs, and emotional well-being. Then we:
- Identify licensed, vetted memory care communities that meet your criteria
- Review the level of care, activities, and philosophy of each option
- Coordinate and accompany you on private or virtual tours
- Walk you through pricing, availability, and paperwork
- Continue to follow up post-placement to ensure everything is going smoothly
Because memory care needs can evolve, we help you make informed decisions that work today—and plan for tomorrow.
