Auguste’s Cottage Memory Care – For those in more advanced stages of memory loss

Although there is no cure for Alzheimer’s disease, those with the disease or other forms of memory loss can still enjoy a high quality of life. The progression of Alzheimer’s often makes it difficult for family members to continue care at home.

In response, we’ve created Auguste’s Cottage; a program specializing in the unique needs of those living with memory loss.

Auguste’s Cottage is a self-contained center within our communities. We surround residents with artwork and special personal items from their past to help foster a sense of belonging. Plants adorn the halls and pets visit frequently. This protected environment staffed by highly trained memory care specialists fosters dignity and supports autonomy by reducing challenges and promoting a sense of safety and security for our residents.

Our program provides a structured, research-based program utilizing a person-centered, wellness-based model of care.

Our program includes:

• A structured activity program featuring four domains of wellness
• Innovative sensory techniques to enrich each resident’s unique journey
• Stimulating daily activities to sustain independence and promote a healthy spirit
• A thoughtfully designed home environment that is warm, inviting, safe and secure, emphasizing our holistic and innovative care philosophies
• Wholesome, good-tasting meals served in a dining room especially for memory care residents to minimize anxiety or self-consciousness

When a loved one has dementia, the entire family shares the journey and is deeply affected. We encourage and support engagement from the families of our residents and work closely beside them to provide loving, compassionate support to those who live with us. family.

We proudly accept Private Pay, Long Term Care Insurance and Medicaid.  Our Medicaid Specialists can assist families through the application process for qualified candidates.
