Our nurses and certified nurse assistants, with ongoing education and specialized training in memory care diseases, chart a course of exploration for each resident that touches on various, important aspects of life. Our SHINE® Memory Care program is designed to rebuild and preserve that which their affliction has taken from them. From quality meals to personalized care and attention, you can rest easy knowing your family members are in the best hands and receiving the finest-quality care. You have our word on it.
What Is the SHINE® Memory Care Program?
A memory care program is designed to provide specialized care for seniors with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other kinds of memory issues. In our safe, secure community, residents receive 24/7 care from nurses, certified nurse assistants, and other medical professionals. Our team is specially trained to care for individuals with dementia and has years of experience. Many seniors need more intensive levels of care as they age. For many, this is part of the process of getting older. At our SHINE® Memory Care community, your loved one can receive the care they need.
