For families navigating the complexities of dementia and Alzheimer’s care, the decision to pursue short-term or long-term Memory Care is profound. It’s a choice impacting the quality of life for both the individual living with Memory Loss and their loved ones who support them.
The landscape of Memory Care has evolved, thankfully, to offer more than clinical environments. Memory & Company’s Oakville Club is an oasis in this progression, striving to provide supportive, uplifting, and enriching experiences for its Members.
The Importance of Choosing the Right Memory Care Environment
The challenges of home care for individuals living with Memory Loss, especially the isolation, can be difficult. Choosing a Memory Care environment in Oakville that not only provides care but fosters a community and support structure is crucial. Memory & Company recognizes the toll that round-the-clock care can have on families and offers a refuge for Members that promotes engagement and well-being.
Memory care environments are uniquely equipped to address the specific needs of individuals with cognitive impairments. From specially trained staff to environments designed with safety and familiarity in mind, these environments offer a comprehensive level of care. An exceptional Memory Care environment offers accommodations, programs, and activities designed to enhance the quality of life of someone living with Memory Loss and support programs for care partners.
Medical care and supervision are also involved. The Team Members are qualified professionals with the experience and knowledge of caring for individuals with Memory Loss.
Unveiling the Short-Term Stay Experience at Memory & Company
Caregivers often neglect their own health and well-being in service to their loved ones. At Memory & Company, our short-term Respite Care provides care partners and the person living with Memory Loss a temporary getaway of three days or more. Short-term stays allow families the opportunity to rest, recharge, and restore balance while their loved one continues to receive professional care in a comforting environment.
At our Oakville location, Members have comfortable and luxurious suites in a relaxing secure environment designed to enhance their lifestyle. We offer 24-hour security supervision, a minimum of 5:1 staffing ratio, nursing care and support, on-call physician access, recreational therapist support, specialized health services, pharmacy services, and mobile laboratory services for medical testing.
Members can enjoy a variety of amenities during their short-term stay including a movie theatre, recreation games room, fitness room, outdoor lounges, beauty salon, and a state-of-the-art open-concept kitchen.
Discover the Advantages of Long-Term Stays at Memory & Company
Memory & Company also offers Long-term stays in Oakville for those living with Memory Loss and cognitive impairments caused by dementia or brain-related injuries. We are also a licensed Retirement Home. Our long-term care programs are designed to encourage Members to live as independently as possible while offering support when needed to enhance their physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being. We have a physician available to support the ever changing needs of our Members to ensure the best quality of life possible.
