WHAT IS MEMORY CARE?
Memory care reaches beyond the realm of traditional assisted living care. While many of the services are the same, memory care offers additional assistance with daily living in a secure environment. Additionally, the environment and activities are both specifically designed with those who have dementia or Alzheimer’s in mind.
Most people with dementia or Alzheimer’s can become disoriented or unsettled easily. Keeping the environment low-key provides the relaxed setting they need to thrive.
The Cooper Cottage
At Unlimited Care Cottages, we know how important memory care is to you and your family members. The Cooper Cottage, our first Certified Alzheimer’s Cottage, is located in the Spring/Woodlands area. This small specialty-care cottage was designed to offer a secure, peaceful, caring environment where your loved one with Alzheimer’s or dementia can thrive and enjoy life.
