Proud to be an Authorized Validation Organization
Our community has been recognized by the Validation Training Institute for its dedication and commitment to caregiver training for residents with dementia.
Where Your Loved One Truly Thrives
Finding the right support for someone living with dementia is a journey that requires compassion and expertise. It is our goal to support your family in this journey with compassion, respect, and deep empathy.
We believe every person deserves to be seen for who they are—not just their diagnosis. Our specialized neighborhoods provide a secure, home-like environment where your loved one can find purpose and joy in every day.
We partner with your family to uphold their dignity through every interaction.
What Is Memory Care?
Our Montessori Moments in Time™ program is built on profound respect for each individual, honoring their significant life stories and personal preferences. We provide residents with a positive, highly intentional community experience.
Our tailored Life Engagement programming seeks to reduce agitation and inspire comfortable conversation and activity. By understanding your loved one’s unique history and current abilities, our team can identify their needs, troubleshoot challenges, and gently validate feelings to create a more joyful and higher quality of life.
Montessori Moments in Time™
Who our residents are and the lives they’ve led are important elements in providing the best care. Before someone joins our community, we ask that families complete a Resident Life Story to provide our team with the information needed to offer a meaningful and customized experience.
Our Montessori Moments in Time™ program is based on our
Five Directional Paths to provide a holistic and respectful
experience for your loved one:
