Harmony House is a unique place where people suffering from Alzheimer's Disease, and other forms of dementia, can still enjoy life. People don't lose their humanity when they lose their memory skills.
Located just outside of Down Town San Rafael, in Marin County, Harmony House is an Assisted Living Community that only specialized in providing Dementia Care for individuals who are at the beginning, middle, and end of their diagnosis.
Harmony House is family owned, promoting an environment of family and community that changes with the needs of the individual, rather than the requirements of corporate supervision.
Residents with dementia can blossom in a social setting where they are not defined by their deficits but rather encouraged to excel within their abilities and memories.
At Harmony House we provide Dementia Care for individuals with many different kinds of dementia including: Alzheimer's Disease, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Lewy Body Dementia, Frontotemporal Dementia, Vascular Dementia, and Parkinson's Disease. We provide Dementia Care for individuals who are at the beginning, middle, and end of their diagnosis.
What people who live with dementia lose is their ability to live comfortably in society. They don't remember the rules the rest of us live by and they no longer fit in. They fit in because the flow of activity is designed to meet their special needs. Harmony House provides a society where individuals can live entirely in their moment.
Enjoyment of life takes a different form at Harmony House. Life here is less complex and the focus on routines of play and activities, appealing meals and rest are nurturing and simple.
Harmony House is a community where individuals who need assistance with incontinence care, who are at risk of wondering, who are forgetful, may be disoriented at times, or are confused can live while maximizing their independence.
