MEMORY CARE
Caring for the needs of those with memory loss provides a remarkable opportunity for ministry and has become one of Angels Care Center’s most highly respected programs.
Specially trained staff interact with residents through various stages of the disease to help them function at their highest levels. Encouraging life skills and daily activities promotes a sense of purpose and reassures families that their loved ones are cared for in a warm, tender, supportive environment.
Angels Care Center supports and stays connected to the Alzheimer’s Association, receiving continuous updates and training on new studies and new methods of treatment.
