According to the National Institute on Aging (NIA), dementia refers to the loss of cognitive functions (thinking, reasoning, the ability to remember) that are severe enough to interfere with a person’s daily functioning. While dementia is not a disease, it may accompany certain diseases or conditions, the most common of which is Alzheimer’s.
While under the umbrella of Fleet Landing’s Assisted Living license, every aspect of memory care — from staffing to dining and programs — is designed around the unique needs of people experiencing memory loss. Specially trained professionals work hand-in-hand with each individual and his or her family members to create structure as well as familiar schedules and surroundings, all in a secure environment that promotes a sense of purpose and accomplishment.
Yes. Our team members at the Nancy House are specially trained to care for people experiencing Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia and uphold the Comfort Matters standards for which we are accredited.
