Avamere at Hillsboro - Dementia Care: Enhancing One’s Quality of Life

With Avamere at Hillsboro's innovative "Best Friends" approach to dementia care and Alzheimer's care, success comes in simple ways. It comes when a resident engages in a satisfying activity and feels a sense of accomplishment. It comes when a resident is comforted by remembering a daily routine. And it comes when a resident explores our facility, safely. We're pleased for them and happy that our approach is enhancing their quality of life.

Because dementia and Alzheimer's affects ones memory and thinking skills, Avamere at Hillsboro dementia care team coaches residents in a kind and compassionate way that presents clues from resident's previous lifestyle. They also keep tabs on and manage behavior changes, so residents can stay involved with daily activities safely and be "present" for each new day.

Furthermore, we strive to:

• Ease stressful situations by keeping to daily routines and having similar staff schedules
• Be alert to "sun downing," when some dementia care residents become more anxious
• Provide safe areas for wandering and exploring

Let us help preserve your loved one's quality of life too. Contact Avamere at Hillsboro dementia care today.
