I relocated my father from another home that was providing insufficient care. The team at Prairie House has been great! Consistent in their care, communication, and teamwork from Day 1 through today (6 weeks later). The staff is kind, caring, and thoughtful, even calling to let me know of small abnormalities. There are so many fun activities for Dad, and the food is really good. I am impressed with this team!
Memory Care at Prairie House
Whole-Person Care with Heart and Purpose
Our philosophy is based on The Best Friends™ approach to dementia care, putting resident needs, history, and life story at the center of every interaction at our Memory Care community in Broken Arrow.
Compassion and Expertise Every Day
Support with heart
Compassionate support meets trusted expertise, creating a setting where each person feels secure, understood, and connected. Associates meet residents where they are, offering Memory Care that nurtures dignity and brings comfort, connection, and purpose to every day.
Spaces Designed for Comfort and Familiarity
Life with purpose, every day
“Fit the day” experiences
Every resident has unique needs, abilities, and rhythms. That’s why we design activities and routines to “fit the day.” Whether it’s enjoying favorite music, paging through a life story book, or participating in therapeutic exercises to maintain mobility, each experience is chosen to lift spirits and spark memories. Small details like helping with a recipe once loved or walking a familiar path bring comfort and a sense of purpose.
Your loved one’s story, always remembered
Through our Hear a Story, Share a Lifetime™ program, each resident’s history is honored and revisited. These stories guide care and deepen connections between residents, associates, and families.
Peace of mind for families
Choosing memory care is never simple, but families take comfort knowing their loved one is surrounded by compassion, professional expertise, and a philosophy built on dignity and respect.
Meaningful details, thoughtful care
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you determine if someone is ready for Memory Care?
Memory Care may be the right choice when memory loss begins affecting safety, daily routines, or overall quality of life. If your loved one simply needs assistance with daily tasks and is not experiencing cognitive decline, Assisted Living may be a better fit. Our team works closely with families to determine the most appropriate level of care based on each person’s individual needs.
What specialized services are available for residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s?
Our associates help with personal care, medication, meals, and routines, while encouraging independence whenever possible. Licensed nurses are also here for added support.
What activities or therapies are used to support memory and cognitive health?
Residents enjoy personalized programs designed to encourage engagement, familiarity, and meaningful moments throughout the day. Activities include painting classes, music and live entertainment, movie afternoons, seasonal celebrations, sensory dining experiences like made-to-order breakfasts, and small group gatherings that promote conversation, creativity, and connection in a comfortable, monitored environment.
Will families stay involved?
Yes. Families are an important part of our approach. We offer regular updates, support groups, and plenty of ways to stay connected.
How much does Memory Care cost and what is included in that price?
Memory Care pricing varies depending on apartment selection and each resident’s personalized care needs. Monthly pricing includes a private apartment, chef-prepared meals, housekeeping, life enrichment programming, personalized support, and specialized dementia care provided by a compassionate team.
Do Memory Care associates have any specialized certifications or training?
Yes. Legend is committed to providing advanced dementia education for our Memory Care teams. We require all Memory Care associates to go through the Certified Dementia Practitioner® (CDP®) training through the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners. Each Legend Memory Care community has multiple certified associates who have completed specialized training in person-centered dementia care, communication, behavior support, safety practices, and daily care strategies.
What is a Certified Dementia Practitioner® (CDP®)?
A Certified Dementia Practitioner® is a professional who has completed formal dementia care training and demonstrated knowledge of person-centered care practices. The certification equips caregivers with advanced skills to better support individuals living with dementia through effective communication, understanding behavioral changes, and providing meaningful daily care. It reflects a commitment to ongoing education and delivering a higher standard of dementia care.
