Dealing with the effects of Alzheimer’s disease and trying to understand available care options can be extremely challenging for families. At Heritage Point, we are working with families to envision a better way to live with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia related impairments.

• We are re-inventing Alzheimer’s care and what life should be like for seniors with cognitive challenges. Our focus is on each individual resident; knowing who they are and what they love to do…and then finding activities that have meaning and purpose.
• We offer a smaller, home environment that promotes dignity, respect and love. Our dedicated team of experienced and caring staff understands the importance of developing close personal relationships with our residents and becomes an extended part of your family.

For each of our residents, we develop an individual Life Care Plan  that is tailored to each person based on their needs and desires. These amenities and services not only provide for life’s necessities, but also encourage positive relationships among our residents, their families, and our associates.

At Heritage Point, we strongly believe that people with Alzheimer’s or dementia are just that…people…people with individual strengths, abilities, interests, and desires. Our philosophy of care focuses on creating an environment that is not only comfortable and enjoyable but also meaningful and engaging.

Heritage Point is a place for seniors with dementia to come and live. Our goal is to develop a deep understanding of who are residents are as individuals and offer opportunities everyday for meaning and purpose. Considering the very personal dimensions of a person’s life – physical, emotional, spiritual, and social – is a key part of promoting whole-person wellness  which focuses on nurturing mind, body, and spirit.

Because every person is unique, our belief is that there is no “cookie-cutter” approach to caring for individuals with dementia. Getting to know our residents at a personal level enables us to create a life and a home where seniors feel loved and have an opportunity to thrive. Our personalized approach to memory care  is one of the things that separate us from us from other Alzheimer’s care facilities.
