Along with an increased awareness of Alzheimer’s
and other dementia-related diseases, there has been a move to advance best care
practices for those suffering from the disease over the last couple of
decades. In addition to medications that
can help slow down the progression of the disease, many specialists in the
field have worked to improve the approaches to care.
At MorningStar
at Bear Creek, our community is dedicated to the
individualized care of those suffering from Alzheimer’s or other dementia-related
diseases. Our holistic
care begins with the utmost respect and compassion for our special residents
that is borne out of a deep understanding of the disease. Furthermore, we recognize that a prognosis
of Alzheimer’s or dementia is frightening to not only the individual but to
their family and strive to provide support for them as well.
MorningStar at Bear Creek is equipped
to care for your family member at the onset of the disease as well as in the
most advanced stages. Our community is
specifically designed to enhance our residents’ freedom including
secure courtyards, patios and strolling paths. We provide assistance in
whatever way a resident needs us including eating and daily personal care
activities. Right from the start, we
interview the family so we may become familiar with the resident’s personal
preferences, background, and hobbies, and then design a care plan suited around
their needs.
Our care techniques include a variety
of multi-sensory cues designed to calm and awaken memories as well as to
support the person’s capabilities and affirm their dignity and value. We strive to make each day as special as
possible for our residents and we have a wonderful team of caregivers that put
their hearts and souls into helping us achieve that goal. Please contact us to learn more about
MorningStar at Bear Creek’s quality dementia care.
