Memory Care Vs. Personal Care

January 24, 2023

As your loved one's needs change, it is always important to give them the best care possible. We want to make sure they are safe and well cared for—and to ensure their safety and well-being, we want to make sure they are getting help.

When choosing the right care, it is important to know first what our loved ones will need for their situation. 

Memory Care

Memory care provides safe, structured, intensive, specialized care for people with memory issues. This type of care may be ideal for people who have Alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia. 

With the help of trained staff in memory care, residents with memory loss are supported to be able to navigate their day through group and individual activities designed to keep them engaged and comfortable. Some facilities like 428 Healthcare provide a tactile and multi-sensory simulation in their memory care program to enhance their cognitive abilities.

The layout of their living areas is designed to minimize their confusion and the facility is enhanced security-wise to keep them safe.

Personal Care

Personal care provides support in day-to-day activities so the residents can live more independently with assistance as needed. This type of care is best suited to individuals who need support to safely do their activities of daily living such as bathing, toileting, dressing, medication management, grooming, housekeeping, and eating.

Personal care communities provide social events and recreational activities so residents will not be isolated socially.

Designed For Your Peace of Mind

Care transitions are never easy, and for loved ones who are unable to care for themselves independently, it can be a drastic change. Whether you choose memory care or personal care, your loved one deserves to live in a safe, secure, and well-cared-for setting.

If your loved one needs help navigating day-to-day life, our team works hard to get them the resources they need. Your loved one will be given a comprehensive care plan that outlines their treatment and outlines the goals they wish to achieve while at 428 Healthcare. This way, we have a strong starting point to work from that can be modified as necessary.
