MEMORY CARE

The memory care services provided at One Kenton Place have been meticulously designed to cater to the distinct needs of individuals dealing with Alzheimer’s and various forms of dementia. Our specialized caregivers offer day-to-day oversight, guidance, and assistance within a secure and highly structured environment. This structure and support system effectively minimize the confusion, restlessness, and associated health challenges often encountered by those progressing through Alzheimer’s.

We firmly believe in the positive impact of comprehensive, individualized memory care, delivering the best possible outcomes for our residents and their families. Notably, our memory care not only benefits those with memory loss but also provides peace of mind to their families, assuring them that their loved ones are safe and receiving excellent care.

By entrusting us with their caregiving needs, families can significantly reduce the stress they may experience while offering residents a warm and welcoming community for daily interaction with their peers.

" I can't begin to thank the staff of One Kenton enough for the wonderful care they have tirelessly provided for my Mother. One Kenton has met all of her many needs and has provided so much love and kindness especially through these difficult times to my Mother and me.
One Kenton has been a blessing! "

Specialized Training

At One Kenton Place, every member of our staff undergoes specialized memory care training, and what’s even more significant is that this training is an ongoing process. Dementia care training equips our team with a deeper insight into how dementia impacts individuals physically, mentally, and socially. An in-depth comprehension of dementia’s symptoms and signs is pivotal for caregivers, as it equips them to deliver superior care and support.

 

By tailoring our care to each resident’s specific needs and their stage of dementia, we can elevate their quality of life, preserve their independence, and cultivate a nurturing environment. This knowledge empowers our caregivers and fosters meaningful social interactions, benefiting not only the resident but also their caregivers and loved ones.

Person Centred Care

Person-centred care embodies a philosophy that acknowledges the unique values, personal histories, and personalities of each individual. It affirms that every person holds an equal entitlement to dignity, respect, and active participation within their surroundings.

The ultimate goal of person-centred care is to create partnerships among our staff, our residents and their families to enhance their quality of life and the quality of care they receive. Services and supports are designed and delivered in a way that is integrated, collaborative, and mutually respectful of everyone involved.
