Compassionate Memory Care Community

We’re here for you. We have a number of resources you can benefit from. Saint Therese has support groups as well as a robust pastoral care program available to you for free.

If you’re considering senior living as the next chapter, our respite care is offered in our residences for up to four weeks. This short-term stay supports caregiver vacations, assists in transitions to a new lifestyle as a member of a Saint Therese community, and acts as a perfect “trial run” to ensure Saint Therese senior living is the best next step.

We incorporate personalized programs, amenities and activities catered specifically to residents living with dementia-related diseases, such as:

• Music and Memory© programming with furnished iPads and iPods
• Therapeutic Serenity Babies
• Reminiscence therapy
• Music therapy
• Décor & design strategies like limiting use of mirrors, incorporating natural light & removing loud patterns
• Ongoing dementia care training for Saint Therese employees & volunteers
• Aromatherapy
• Healing & memory gardens
• Light therapy
• Storytelling
• Tactile therapy such as Activity Aprons
• Physical therapy & exercises powered by Ascend Rehabilitation

Yes. That’s exactly why Saint Therese offers a continuum of care. Saint Therese has memory care for seniors who prefer a private apartment setting. Those living with early to moderate-stages of dementia find apartment living provides freedom to do more every day in a worry-free setting.

Care center neighborhoods provide individuals with moderate to late-stage dementia the benefit of comfortable living space tailored to meet every day needs. When accompanied by compassionate 24/7 care, our residents are empowered to engage in activities designed to enhance well-being and their families benefit from knowing their loved one is thriving in a secured environment.

The first thing you’ll notice is the secured entry to Saint Therese memory care neighborhoods, encompassed outdoor spaces and that the safety of all our residents is top priority.

Just like within traditional long-term care, employees serve memory care neighborhoods 24/7 but the provided care is highly personalized and specialized—and that requires a few more helping hands. Saint Therese memory care employees receive ongoing training and education so each are prepared to appropriately respond to dementia-related symptoms like agitation, wandering or sundowning.

In addition, scheduled memory care activities and events are designed to engage, stimulate and socialize residents living with moderate to late-stage dementia.

As we age, we become more forgetful. Mild change is a normal part of the aging process. When memory loss is not manageable by making simple concessions like forming lists, keeping a calendar or retracing steps, there may be cause for concern.

If you notice a loved one’s well-being is potentially in jeopardy—unpaid bills piling up, he or she gets lost behind the wheel or you’ve considered unhooking the stove —give us a call.

Absolutely. A residency at Saint Therese is designed to ensure you have more opportunities to socialize and connect with your loved one. Whereas there are some reasonable guidelines we ask family members to consider, we encourage loved ones to remain an active source of support and in our residents’ lives.
