Assisted living provide Alzheimer’s care are usually referred to as Special Care Units (SCUs). These assisted living facilities are often considered the best choice for those who are in the early to moderate stages of Alzheimer’s. SCUs are designed to suit the needs of people with Alzheimer’s, particularly by employing staff that is expressly trained to work with people with dementia.
Cooper Villa of Esperanza Senior Living provides people in need of Alzheimer’s care with a safe, supervised, and comfortable environment that can handle wandering patients; a structured routine; and activities that echo the habits the individual residents have established over a lifetime.
Cooper Villa’s Alzheimer’s care staffers take the time to get to know an individual so that their specific needs can be catered to. Esperanza provides daily activities, such as making the bed or even baking cookies.
All of which are encouraged and practiced in order to give patients an opportunity to succeed at familiar tasks.
