The Bridges offers a specialized and secure memory care unit tailored for residents living with Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related illnesses. With only 16 beds, the specially trained memory care staff is capable of providing each resident personalized, compassionate care.
The unit boasts dedicated daily activities programming designed for loved ones experiencing diminished abilities to communicate, problem solve, and focus. Residents are treated to creative cooking classes, therapeutic art projects, tea parties, and ice cream socials. Music and exercise are part of the daily activities programming.
A secured patio, courtyard and memory garden provides a serene and lovely setting, promoting a relaxing outside experience.
A private dining room, staffed every meal with dedicated nursing staff members, ensure that the memory care residents remain well nourished and hydrated with delicious home cooked meals prepared by our resident chef.
Beautiful, spacious apartments feature private bedrooms, private bathrooms, large walk-in closets and twelve foot ceilings. The building is not located in a hurricane evacuation zone, providing much needed peace of mind for family members and friends.
The hallmark of the community remains the loyalty and longevity of Bridges staff members. Remarkably with few exceptions, administrative staff and department managers remain at the helm since opening over 11 years ago. Care continuity of this magnitude ensures that Bridges residents consistently receive the highest quality care with the utmost kindness and compassion.
