Crafting Personalized Memory Care Experiences

Memory care residents also have full access to everything our community offers. Whether it’s our salon, afternoon meals with friends, or fresh air in our enclosed community courtyard, your loved one can find something they enjoy.
Support your loved one and enjoy the peace of mind our community offers. Schedule a tour with us today.
What Is Memory Care?
Memory care is a designated lifestyle for supporting residents living with conditions that affect their cognitive well-being.Following
The Peregrine Way® philosophy, our approach promotes clarity and stability by honoring our residents’ life experiences while providing comprehensive care for all their needs, from support for daily living activities to on-site therapy for specific challenges.
What Memory Care Addresses
Memory care is a lifestyle that offers support for residents living with cognitive conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other forms of dementia.
Through The Peregrine Way®, our community focuses on enriching cognitive function, supporting safety, and generally improving your loved one’s quality of life.
Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. It leads to severe cognitive decline, making daily tasks difficult or impossible.
Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects movement but can also impact memory and cognitive functions.
Other Forms of Dementia
Dementia encompasses a variety of conditions, including vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia.
When to Choose Memory Care
Memory care should be considered when daily living activities such as eating, bathing, and dressing become challenging due to memory loss.
Common signs that it may be time to start thinking about memory care include confusion, wandering, and increased safety risks.
Wandering or Getting Lost
Wandering is a common symptom in individuals with memory-affecting conditions. Without proper support, wandering could lead to potentially dangerous situations.
At Peregrine Senior Living, we offer an enclosed community and outdoor courtyard where residents can enjoy an enriching sense of freedom without risking their safety.
Forgetting People, Places, or Dates
Frequently forgetting familiar people, places, or important dates can be a tell-tale sign of a developing cognitive concern. These issues can sometimes put extra pressure on connections with family members caring for their loved ones.
Through The Peregrine Way®, we can work towards strengthening those bonds using techniques that stimulate long-term memories.
Increasing Risk of Injury
Memory impairments can increase a person’s risk of injuries due to accidents, falls, or inability to recognize hazards. Memory care provides a safe, monitored environment with features that can minimize these risks.
