AltaVita Memory Care Centre is a safe and secure community thoughtfully designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Each suite within the community is tailored to address the unique needs and preferences of residents, creating a warm and welcoming environment that blends comfort, safety, and a sense of independence. The community features four inviting garden patios and a spacious central courtyard, allowing residents and their guests to enjoy the outdoors within secure surroundings. Natural light streams through large windows, and the design embraces open, airy spaces provided by 11-foot ceilings, adding to the overall sense of freedom while maintaining a completely protected environment.
Prior to move-in, a thorough assessment is conducted to ensure each resident receives the appropriate level of care and support. Individualized plans are regularly reviewed every six months or whenever a change in condition occurs, ensuring that every need and desire is continually met. Highly trained staff, experienced in memory care, facilitate all aspects of daily living, including medication management, incontinence care, bathing, dressing, and meal assistance. These personal services are provided with utmost dignity and respect, hallmarks of AltaVita’s approach. Residents may also take advantage of hair and nail services, podiatry care, massage therapy, and other wellness offerings designed to minimize stress and support self-esteem.
The physical environment at AltaVita Memory Care Centre is arranged into unique “neighborhoods,” which foster both security and community, while various comforting spaces offer areas for relaxation and socialization. Residents have access to multiple secure outdoor and private areas and benefit from soothing, well-appointed bathrooms featuring elegant floor and wall tiles as well as designer fixtures. Amenities such as the bistro and ice cream parlor, located at the heart of the community, serve as gathering spots for residents and guests to relax and share treats, enhancing the community’s friendly and inclusive atmosphere.
Dining at AltaVita is guided by a dedicated culinary team providing three nutritious and appetizing meals daily, specially crafted with the needs of those with memory-related illnesses in mind. Healthy snacks are also readily available throughout the day. Each resident receives weekly housekeeping, linen, and personal laundry services, with laundry attended to individually in neighborhood-specific laundry rooms, ensuring both privacy and attention to personal details.
The Life Enrichment team at AltaVita plans a full schedule of daily activities tailored to the strengths and histories of each resident, encouraging engagement, wellness, and enjoyment every day of the week. In addition to these enrichment programs, the community offers a specially designed exercise and fitness space appropriate for older adults to support physical health. Regular salon services are also available, helping residents maintain their personal style, dignity, and self-confidence.
For families needing temporary support, AltaVita’s respite care program offers overnight stays in the same safe, structured environment, providing peace of mind and giving caregivers a needed break. The presence of highly trained staff around the clock ensures that every resident, whether permanent or respite, receives attentive, compassionate care at all times. Transportation can be arranged for any emergency or non-emergency needs, allowing for seamless access to external appointments or activities.
A unique aspect of AltaVita Memory Care Centre is the Memory Box program. Each resident’s suite is marked by a beautifully crafted box adorned with personal items, photographs, and memorabilia, serving as a meaningful link between their past and present. This thoughtful detail, along with comfortable single or one-bedroom suites with private baths and living room spaces, helps create a living environment that truly feels like home. From the comforting residential touches to the professional and individualized care, AltaVita Memory Care Centre dedicates itself to maintaining the dignity, comfort, and happiness of every resident.
