Long-Term Care At Anthem Assisted Living Facilities

Memory care is considered to be the best form of long-term care for those dealing with any form of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Dementia is a progressive condition meaning with each day passing, the condition advances leading to deterioration of health of the individual. Home care may not be ideal in this regard. This is where specialized memory care at an assisted living or memory care community comes into the picture. Such a facility is designed to provide the highest level of care to those with cognitive impairments.

Anthem Seniors is an award-winning Anthem assisted living facility designed to offer round-the-clock care at the highest level to those living with Alzheimer’s disease or any other form of dementia.

Here are some of our most sought after services:

Weekly Massage Therapy- The benefits of massage therapy for people with Alzheimer’s disease are aplenty with the most important benefit being lowered anxiety and confusion. Feeling anxious and confused is what advanced dementia brings about. This is where massage therapy helps by reducing agitation in the person with Alzheimer’s.

Pet Therapy- The very presence of furry friends helps lower the effects of dementia. This is in context of the behavioral changes caused by dementia, including anxiety, irritability, aggression, depression and loneliness. Pets make dementia patients open up and become interactive, which they may not be able to do in a usual social setting with their peers.

Trained and experienced in all levels of care- What makes memory care facilities stand apart from others is the experienced staff working here that are certified to cater to the various needs of residents at all stages tailoring their ways to serve the needs of individuals unique to their condition (Alzheimer’s care, vascular dementia, Lewy Body Dementia). At Anthem Seniors, care plans are customized to resident needs with tweaks to the plans along the way with the change in needs.

Nutritious Meals- Nutrition is at the center of living good quality life. Anthem Seniors lives up to the standards in this regard as well by providing residents with three delicious home-cooked meals prepared fresh daily and nutritious snacks throughout the day.

Staying fit and eating right are important no matter what your age. Our bodies have different needs as we get older, so certain nutrients become especially important for good health. Unfortunately, many seniors do not eat as well as they should for a variety of reasons which can lead to malnutrition or poor nutrition.

The Importance of Social Connections in Senior Care

People require social relationships to flourish, and as we get older, the demand only grows. In actuality, the need to socialize and keep deep connections tends to grow as people get older.

Along with personal care, physical therapy, and medication management, socialization is a crucial component of senior care. A holistic approach to wellbeing must take into account a person's emotional health in addition to their physical health.
