Memory Care
At Artēgan our commitment to caring for those with dementia including Alzheimer’s disease means embracing not only the resident but also family and friends. Our program design is based on caring for the whole person. We believe the best approach goes beyond medical needs to include emotional, psychosocial and spiritual needs. The Artēgan approach is resident-centered – we help each person achieve her highest potential in a nurturing environment that celebrates past accomplishments, lifestyle and experiences.
Memory Care is offered at these communities:
- Normandy Park Senior Living, Normandy Park, WA
- San Marino, Westminster, CO
- Atrium Village, Owings Mills, MD – Featured on the Today Show and also People Magazine for their “Senior Prom” event.
Delicious meals, exercises and outside garden trails, light-hearted moments, a range of activities from holding hands to planned social events, the involvement of family and friends all make Memory Care at Artēgan special.
