This place is known especially for memory care-it's the only stand-alone memory care community in Hagerstown and has won awards for its program, with staff members who have advanced dementia training and certified dementia practitioners guiding care. They create individualized care plans for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, design the environment to reduce confusion, and include features like secure outdoor courtyards, a gazebo, and meandering sidewalk paths lined with tall trees to give residents a peaceful setting. The memory care program offers cognitive activities, structured routines, and a safe place to wander, all while keeping residents engaged and active.
