When families write loving thank-you letters to the staff, we know we are accomplishing our goal: to provide compassionate, respectful and dignified services to residents who once were high functioning and now struggle with the devastating effects of dementia. We work with residents and their families as a team to ensure the highest quality of life possible for those who have lost their memories. Some lose their personalities as the disease progresses, their sense of self and their recognition of loved ones … and our staff is here with entertainment, games, memory-inducing activities and other stimulating ideas that encourage, uplift and support residents. We allow them the flexibility to enjoy a meal or snack, take a walk or indulge in a nap in the garden when they wish – striving always to accommodate their needs. Their rooms are filled with remembrances of lives fully lived – photos, personal effects and other cherished belongings that create a sense of home and security. The Oaks is a quiet, peaceful environment that respects the changing needs of residents and honors their dignity.
