If you and your family are looking for memory care, we can help. Our Alzheimer's and dementia care community with our Clare Bridge program is rooted in “a person-centered approach”. That means we help our residents find a sense of belonging and purpose while also helping them preserve who they are.

Residents stay engaged with a gentle daily structure of planned activities to help them maintain their abilities and encourage the use of their current skills. Playing brain games, dancing, cooking classes and music programs are just a few of the ways our residents enjoy their days. Along with our programming, you’ll have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Clare Bridge Daily Path is an evidence-based approach that offers a gentle daily structure of six planned programs per day, which maintain our residents' abilities and encourage the use of their current skills. These include a morning cognitive workout with discussions, brain games and physical fitness opportunities like our B-Fit program, walking programs, and dancing.

Even with a structured routine, our residents have a lot of choices:
•Art classes
•Bingo
•Gardening
•Walking club
•Uno
•Music
•Devotional services
•Movie night

Residents also enjoy InTouch world travel adventures. InTouch brings the outside world in with an intuitively designed touch-screen computer. With easy-to-use, picture-screen prompts, our residents with physical or cognitive limitations can launch a virtual world of discovery.

Surrounded by your favorite things and people who love you – that’s home. Our apartments include:
•Plenty of natural window light
•Garden views in select apartments
•Private bathroom
•Pet-friendly

We help our families make our residents’ apartments familiar and comfortable with a move-in guide and a suggested list of what to bring.

Our Clare Bridge environments feature areas of the community that are set up for safe engagement in gardening, kitchen work, handyman help, and other household and normal daily tasks. Life skills activities provide a sense of purpose, meaning and belonging as residents complete tasks related to everyday life.

We are committed to building person-centered partnerships by knowing your loved one and listening to their voices and choices. In our care model, relationships are built on a loving concern and a sense of family. This relationship enables our associates to listen to your loved one as we problem-solve behavioral expressions that may arise. Knowing and being present in relationships with your loved one gives us a strong foundation to anticipate any unmet needs and lessen behavioral symptoms.

Along with our programming, you’ll have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

As an alternative to psychotropic medications sometimes prescribed to manage behavioral expressions, we’ve developed a comprehensive problem-solving process that includes an entire team dedicated to uncovering the root of the behavioral issue. Sometimes addressing basic issues like pain, hunger or thirst or even an environment that’s too hot or too cold, will resolve problems without the need to resort to medication.
