Memory Care
About Memory Care
When our loved ones are struggling with memory loss due to Alzheimer’s, dementia
or cognitive impairments, they are in need of a special kind of care – patient, loving,
reassuring. Our memory care meets the unique needs of those facing memory loss, as well
as helping their families and loved ones cope with the changes.
Our goal is to give residents the support they need to continue living life with a sense of
independence, productivity and self-worth. Memory loss is a delicate journey to navigate,
let Samaritas Senior Living be your guide.
Our memory care program:
• Focuses on the whole person, not the disease. The whole person approach seeks to
understand each individual’s history, needs, personality, faith and values.
• Strives for person centered care. It is essential for those with memory loss to have
opportunities to make their own choices, to derive purpose and to have meaningful
interactions and activities each day.
• Highlights remaining abilities. We strive to maintain the strengths and abilities for
residents, focusing on their unique God-given abilities.
• Has a spiritual focus. Being a part of the Samaritas campus-life means we encourage
you to participate in our faith community and express personal spirituality in
meaningful ways for persons with memory loss.
