Memory Care

Memory Care refers to specialized care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other memory-related conditions. Focused on providing a secure and supportive environment, these communities offer care that is tailored to meet the unique needs of those suffering with a loss of memory, while helping to maintain quality of life.

CarePartners Senior Living Communities provide exceptional memory care in Washington and Arizona.

Understanding Memory-Related Illnesses

Dementia is a general term used to describe conditions that affect memory, thinking, and social abilities. It is characterized by a decline in cognitive function and can greatly interfere with daily life. Alzheimer’s, the most common cause of dementia, is the result of a buildup of abnormal protein deposits in the brain. Dementia can also be vascular due to strokes or other circulatory problems.

Primary symptoms of dementia include:

• Memory loss – difficulty remembering recent events
• Changes in behavior – mood swings
• Problems with thinking – reduced problem-solving or understanding of complex ideas
• Spatial issues – inability to navigate or recognize familiar places
• Language difficulties – trouble remembering words or understanding what others are saying
• Changes in personality – behaving out of character

A person suffering from dementia may have trouble remembering recent conversations or where they left things. As the condition worsens, family members and close friends are no longer recognized, and aggression or withdrawal might result.

There is currently no cure for dementia, but available treatments can help with managing symptoms. A caring community like CarePartners Senior Living gives you or your loved one the opportunity to live with dignity.
