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.
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 everyday life for those with Alzheimer’s or dementia.
Associates trained in dementia care are available day and night, with licensed nurses on-site.
Programs tailored to each stage of memory loss, from art and music to sensory therapies that “fit the day.”
Personalized therapies, integrated with neuroplasticity principles, encourage the brain’s ability to reorganize and form new neural connections to slow cognitive decline.
Chef-prepared meals served with patience and support, so dining remains a dignified, enjoyable part of the day.
Caregiver groups and frequent communication ensure families feel supported and involved.
Life with purpose, every day
“Fit the day” experiences
Every Memory Care 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.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.
I always feel welcomed by the staff each time I am at this facility. Every staff member is friendly and caring. The administrative staff is approachable and easy to communicate with. The facility is clean, well-lit, and inviting. There are plenty of activities occurring to keep the residents involved. Overall, a great place!!!
Memory Care may be appropriate when Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia begins affecting safety, daily routines, communication, or overall quality of life. Our team works closely with families to understand each person’s needs and recommend the most appropriate level of support. If someone does not currently need specialized dementia care, Assisted Living may be the right place to begin, with the opportunity to transition to Memory Care later if needs change.
Our associates help with personal care, medication, meals, and routines, while encouraging independence whenever possible. Licensed nurses are also here for added support.
Our Memory Care neighborhood offers purposeful, structured programming designed to encourage engagement, routine, and meaningful moments throughout the day. Residents enjoy activities such as gardening, chair exercise, seasonal celebrations, therapy dog visits, music, themed events, and opportunities for social connection in a calm, supportive setting. Programs are thoughtfully adapted to each resident’s abilities and interests to encourage participation and promote a sense of purpose.
Yes. Families are an important part of each resident’s care journey. We encourage loved ones to attend celebrations, seasonal events, birthdays, and other community gatherings, while maintaining regular communication with our care team. By working together and learning each resident’s life story, preferences, and routines, we create more meaningful daily experiences and stronger connections.
The cost of memory care varies depending on the type of apartment you choose and the level of support needed. At Meadowood, one monthly rate covers a private living space, daily meals, housekeeping, and personalized care. That includes help with bathing, dressing, and medications, plus access to enriching activities, monitored gathering spaces, and caring associates available day and night. Families also receive regular updates and opportunities to stay involved.
Memory Care associates at Meadowood receive specialized dementia education focused on understanding Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, effective communication techniques, person-centered care, and meaningful engagement. In addition, Legend Senior Living is committed to having all Memory Care associates earn the Certified Dementia Practitioner® (CDP®) credential through the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners, demonstrating our commitment to providing knowledgeable, compassionate dementia care.
