5 Ways Specialized Care Helps Those With Dementia

Friends Social Coffee
Studies show that the right environment and specialized care is essential for people with memory issues because it can help them live longer, maintain their quality of life, and manage their behaviors.

Here are some ways that our compassionate, quality care at The Terraces at Peachtree Hills Place can help your loved one:

1. Routine and familiarity through households

Our innovative household model provides a daily structure that can help reduce stress, anxiety, and behaviors like aggression and restlessness. This familiar environment also promotes a sense of belonging and community among Members, fostering social connections and emotional well-being.

2. Person-centered care

As a pioneer in person-centered care, we help Members with dementia and cognitive issues participate in activities they enjoy and manage their behavioral and psychological symptoms. This approach allows us to tailor our care to your loved one’s unique needs, preferences, and life history, ensuring a more meaningful and fulfilling experience.

3. Specialized Memory Care

Memory Care like our Stepping Stones program provides a safe space with activities to stimulate memory, manage behaviors, and enhance quality of life. Our specialized caregivers are trained to use evidence-based techniques and interventions that can slow cognitive decline and maximize independence. Stepping Stones is available to Members in every household.

4. Support for you as a caregiver

Family caregivers can experience less stress and be able to maintain close relationships with their loved one when they have the right support. We offer educational resources, respite care options, and support groups to help you navigate your loved one’s challenges while maintaining your own well-being.

5. Support for your loved one

We support your loved to help them do things for themselves so they can maintain a sense of dignity, confidence, and self-esteem. By focusing on their remaining abilities rather than their limitations, we encourage independence and a sense of purpose, which can significantly improve their overall quality of life.
