MyStory: Evidence-Based Memory Care That Starts with Listening
Our MyStory approach to dementia care succeeds because it’s based on understanding your loved one as a person—with a history, personality and spark worth honoring.
Before their first day, we have a conversation to capture everything that matters: medical history, daily routines, personal preferences and the memories that bring comfort and joy.
Then we turn to you—because our whole-family partnership puts you at the core of your loved one’s memory care plan from day one. With your help, we learn:
- Their favorite music and the routines that bring them comfort
- The moments and memories that still make them light up
- The people, places and pastimes that define who they are
What we learn informs every interaction, every activity and everyone involved in their care—every day.
The result is memory care that feels personal because it is personal.
More happiness. More connection. More of the person you love.
Engagement and Enrichment That Make Every Day Matter
Our memory care neighborhood fills every day with joy, connection and a sense of purpose.
Because we know your loved one’s story through MyStory, programming is tailored to their interests, abilities and what brings genuine meaning to them—not a one-size-fits-all calendar.
Your loved one’s days might include:
- Music, movement and reminiscence activities tailored to individual history
- Interactive technology that stimulates the mind and brings families closer
- Strolls through our beautiful 100-acre campus and memory care courtyard
- Community events and visits with fellow residents
And on the not-so-good days, our feelings-first approach leads with human connection before we ever consider medication
