Our residence is built to
ACCOMMODATE THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF PEOPLE LIVING WITH DEMENTIA
within a warm home-like setting
Our Residence
Our residence is built specifically to accommodate the needs of residents with dementia, while simultaneously creating a warm home-like setting.
By dividing the home into four small living spaces, each with only six or seven residents per unit, we have created an environment that feels like a home. Throughout the day, one personal support worker is dedicated to the six or seven residents, building an environment of familiarity and knowledge about each resident’s preferences and needs.

Residents can move around the entire home and garden, freely and safely without the risk of harm or undue frustration.
