When a person has Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, they require specialized care and support in order to remain as safe and healthy as possible. At Baptist Retirement Community, our team understands the unique needs of seniors with memory loss and is trained to provide them with the quality care they require. Some of the benefits of senior memory care at Baptist Retirement Community include:

• Structured environment. Many seniors with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia can feel overwhelmed and confused in busy, unfamiliar environments. Our team is specially trained to ensure that seniors are comfortable in their surroundings and can thrive in our safe and secure setting.
• Individualized care plans. Each of our residents requires a unique level of care, and we are committed to meeting the changing needs of each person. We work closely with family members to ensure that each resident receives the personalized care they need.
• Staff monitoring. Our Baptist Retirement Community team continuously monitors our residents to prevent them from wandering off or becoming lost. We provide around-the-clock care and support to help ensure the safety and wellbeing of each of our residents.

We understand that not all seniors living with memory impairment require the same level of care, which is why we offer two distinct senior memory care options to best accommodate your needs:

The Crest

Opened in 2016, The Crest is the newest addition to Baptist Retirement Community. This leading-edge approach specializes in senior memory care and is specifically designed for those living with higher-functioning memory impairments.

Sagecrest Alzheimer’s Care Center

Since 2001, Sagecrest Alzheimer’s Care Center has been providing memory care support to families and seniors living with memory impairment. Located on the south edge of the community, Sagecrest offers a calm, resident-centered approach to senior memory care and dementia care in a more traditional setting.

A senior Memory Care program at Baptist Retirement Community gives peace of mind not only to seniors but for their loved ones as well. Other benefits of this program include: 

• A protected residential environment –With specially-designed courtyards and walkways, we aim to prevent any falls. Also, our entrances and exits are closely monitored so that our residents don’t suddenly leave the premises.
• Private suites – Our suites are designed for one resident, so each room provides the privacy our seniors desire.
• Community spaces and activity rooms –The community spaces and activity rooms at Baptist Retirement Community provide excellent opportunities for our residents to interact and bond with each other. 
• Daily activities and regularly planned outings – New experiences keep the mind sharp, so our team offers daily activities and regularly planned outings to enhance the mental well-being of our residents.
• Lifestyles programming – At Baptist Retirement Community, you’re free to live whatever lifestyle best suits you. If you enjoy socializing, every day is full of new opportunities to make memories with your neighbors and friends. If you prefer quiet, your private senior apartment home provides the perfect place to read or craft. If fitness is your favorite, then community wellness programs are sure to keep you active.
• Faith-based dementia programs – As a faith-based nonprofit senior living provider, we believe that spirituality can be an essential aspect of our residents’ lives.
