Though created as a state-of-the-art memory care center, life at the Village seems more like home. From the charming architecture and delightful interiors, to the care teams, food, gardens, and activities, the Village provides a warm, comfortable, safe environment where residents receive heartfelt care. As an Ashland Memory Care community, we provide specialized memory care services for those with Alzheimer's or other age-related cognitive impairments.
In Ashland, the Village at Valley View is an independent, locally-owned and managed care center. Our resident-centered philosophy stresses personal attention and encourages daily activities, allowing residents to live the best and most enriching life possible. The Village has been thoughtfully designed to provide the ultimate care for residents, while giving their loved ones comfort and peace of mind. The Village at Valley View is a special place for special people.
Connectedness is a basic human need that is particularly important with those with cognitive impairments. “Circle of Friends “ is a daily gathering that stimulates conversation to enhance engagement and connection.
Routines include exercise, music and singing, and the “breaking of bread” traditions that are prevalent in every culture found around the world. Through this structure, elders have roles that give them purpose and meaning. They listen and contribute and can be successful in participating in a group activity no matter what their level of cognitive challenge.
We warmly welcome you to experience the good people who live and work at Village at Valley View Memory Care. Our team believes if you do the right thing, the right things happen. You will hear lots of laughter and giggles here!
The professional team at the Village, comprised of registered nurses and care partners, has an extraordinary commitment to individualized, 24-hour heartfelt care. Since the Village is exclusively dedicated to those with memory loss, our well-trained, experienced personnel are continually involved in new training programs designed to help them provide the latest state-of-the-art knowledge in caring for people dealing with memory loss. Our care partners do not have offices. They spend 100% of their time interacting with our residents. They assist with daily medication, grooming and dressing, arranging medical appointments, personal hygiene, mealtime assistance, and a wide variety of other personal care, life-enrichment, and health-related services.
The Care Partners are members of our care team. You may be more familiar with the term ‘caregiver.’ While our Care Partners do, indeed, provide caregiving, they are also encouraged to listen to resident stories, to sit with an elder when they need a hand to hold, or to participate in life enrichment activities alongside the person. It is important that we as human beings be allowed to both give and receive care. Therefore, the caregiving role is not one-way. Our Care Partners want to learn and grow from the life experience of the elders, and they recognize that each person they care for has much to give them to fill them up, and bring them joy.
The Village at Valley View in Rogue Valley, Ashland, Oregon is not only part of the community, it is a community resource. As people live longer, effectively meeting the needs of those having memory loss has become a critical community need. Our large conference room and our experts are available for innovative programs and discussions about dementia, including Alzheimer’s Disease and other memory loss issues. Periodic workshops are scheduled for the families of our residents as well as those dealing with care at home.
