The Generations Program understands the special needs of those with memory impairment. The attentive staff at Maplewood offers a memory care program that allows residents to live to their fullest potential in a protected environment without concerns over wandering or other safety issues. From the secured courtyard to the inviting kitchen area, our community and grounds were specifically designed to attend to these special needs in a warm and supportive atmosphere. Striving to encourage activity and freedom, our program helps to minimize the confusion and stress that often accompany memory impairment.

Our staff is carefully selected for their care and compassion and each has been specially trained and certified through the Alzheimer’s Association. With compassion, finesse and often humor, we engage our residents in activities that evoke familiarity and comfort to minimize adverse symptoms. The Generations Program is adapted to each resident’s needs. For example, we use methods such as art, cooking or music therapy to stimulate the residents’ creativity and senses, or tasks such as setting the table, to empower the individual. We also incorporate hobbies the residents may have previously enjoyed. These methods have been found to greatly aid in maintaining independence for those with Alzheimer’s. Our goal is to help each resident live with the highest possible level of independence and comfort.
