Brookdale Delta Memory Care

As you and your family consider care for your loved one with Alzheimer s or other types of dementia, we can help. At Brookdale Delta, located in an upscale area of Lansing, Mich., we have decades of experience in understanding the complexity of Alzheimer s and dementia. We also have a safe, comfortable, home-like environment for your loved one to live and thrive.

With gentle guidance and visual reminders, we help residents flourish in activities such as gardening, kitchen work and other projects that provide the opportunity to use meaningful life skills and talents even when dementia is advanced. And for you, there s peace of mind knowing we have trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Our residents like to have fun, so you ll see them socializing at parties and other get-togethers, reminiscing about the old days, listening to music or cooking something up in the community kitchen. Maybe you ll find them playing cards, getting creative with arts & crafts or gathering for a movie. Each of these activities is enjoyable, yes, but they re part of a carefully designed care program to help our residents live their best life.

Because Brookdale Delta specializes in memory care, our community has been designed with our residents in mind. Our peaceful surroundings and home-like setting are designed to re-create the home environments our residents have enjoyed throughout their lives. Easy-to-navigate floor plans and soothing wall colors are included by design so residents feel safe and not overwhelmed. And with monitored entries and exits and an enclosed courtyard and garden, they remain safe while having complete freedom of movement.

While our common areas are designed for socializing, our apartments offer privacy and a quiet place. Filled with natural light, our apartments, which come in both single and companion suites, are a place for your loved one to be surrounded by the comfort of his or her own familiar furnishings, family photos and treasured keepsakes.

Our memory care program is focused on creating feelings of belonging and purpose for your loved one, while seeking to preserve their sense of self. More simply, we meet them where they are. With gentle guidance and visual reminders, we help them flourish in activities such as gardening, kitchen work and other projects that provide the opportunity to use meaningful life skills and talents.

Our supportive dining environment encourages familiarity and socialization during mealtime. Three flavorful, nutritious home-style meals and snacks are served daily in our dining area. We keep mealtimes very routine for our residents to help alleviate any confusion or added stress. All residents sit together at the same time and same table each day and place settings enhance and provide ease for each person.

Deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, our Alzheimer s and dementia care is called the Clare Bridge program, where each resident is surrounded by others with the same cognitive abilities, to give them a feeling of fitting in.

The Clare Bridge Daily Path provides residents with a structured, yet fun, routine of activities discussions for mental workouts, dancing for physical exercise that help maintain their abilities and encourage the use of their current skills, even when dementia is advanced. The Daily Path is carefully structured to give each resident purpose and a sense of security that they are right where they need to be. And, of course, you ll have peace of mind knowing there is trained staff on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
