It might be the words to a song recalled. Or a warm smile returned. Or a family story shared. Or confusion and frustration soothed. There may not yet be a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, but In our Reflections at Willows memory support neighborhood, we help residents live to their emotional, spiritual, and functional potential at every stage of the disease.
Our person-centered care treats the needs of each individual, rather than focusing on their illness or lost abilities.
Working one-on-one with residents, our staff develops long-term relationships rich with emotional comfort and stability. They become more than just caregivers; they’re trusted friends as well.
A recent study published in the journal Clinical Interventions found that person-centered dementia care reduced agitation and depression, enhanced engagement, lessened the need for psychiatric medication and improved the quality of life.
At GreenFields, we are continually innovating to bring the best service and care for our residents. In 2018, we will become one of the few senior living communities whose entire memory support staff is certified as Dementia Care Specialists (DCS) by the Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI).
