Memory Lane
Memory Lane is a secure Memory Care Unit utilizing the social model for all levels of Alzheimer’s care. Our goal is to help maintain as much independence as possible for each Resident in a structured, comfortable, and secure environment.
Our specific admission criteria allows us to determine which residents would benefit most from the Memory Lane experience, while consistent and close relationships with the staff allow for less confusion and agitation among the Residents. Our staff is dedicated to providing a meaningful existence by focusing on small, yet important moments that occur in the life of a Memory Lane Resident.
Services provided on Memory Lane include:
- Care plans focused on the individual person-their abilities, their activities of daily living, and their social well-being;
- A secure environment where Residents can walk freely, without fear of elopement;
- Specialized activities based on what they can perform, what their thought processes are, and their ability to do activities;
- An environment that triggers and preserves memories, encouraging Residents to undertake activities that help them stay active and self-sufficient to the furthest extent possible;
- Dedicated staff who are trained to care for Memory Lane Residents and whose primary goal is to preserve their dignity and independence
"It's pretty good. Me, I think it's real good. Everyone comes in here and works hard."
