Memory Care

Bringing Dignity and Belonging to Memory care.

Our Lilac Trace memory care program is designed with kindness and compassion at their core and focus on the unique needs of each resident with cognitive disorders like Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Inspired by the best-selling book, “Meet Me Where I Am,” our Lilac Trace philosophy emphasizes the importance of connecting residents to their past while celebrating their present point of view at any given moment. The five key elements of our Lilac Trace philosophy:

We treat everyone as an individual. There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to care.
We respect each resident by understanding their individual history.
We walk side by side with each resident daily and accept people for who they are now.
We understand that behaviors and expressions are a form of communication.
We strive to make each moment special.
