We’re asked to wear a lot of hats in life like loving husband, model employee, and supportive parent, but one of the most challenging roles to fill is caregiver. Caregivers are often forced to walk fine lines, lines like being available to keep an eye on their dad in case he takes another fall, but giving him the privacy that he wants in his own home. Showing compassion and respect to their mother with memory loss, but making sure she’s eating, even if she doesn’t want to.
It’s no surprise that a lot of caregivers are riddled with senses of worry, uncertainty, and guilt. The good news is: it can get better. The caregivers and nurses in our communities have a passion for helping seniors and their families transition through aging and have experience walking the fine lines. They can be the watchdog, the friend and the confidant, but they can never take your place.
The Wentworth at Draper has been expressly designed with seniors in mind. Three unique floor plans that maximize living space, while providing comfort and adequate storage, allow you to choose the style that suits your individual needs.
A helping hand may be all you need to maintain your independence. Whether it’s companion service, personal care, or nursing services, our goal is to provide support that encourages an active and healthy lifestyle.
Our In the Moment® program is thoughtfully designed as a team-approach to memory care delivery. We describe what we offer as Memory Support because we’re intentionally shifting away from outdated Dementia care practices and into a hospitality model.
We recognize that each person we are privileged to serve is both unique in their life history, as well as their Dementia journey. We understand the importance of a scheduled rhythm to each day. However, we also encourage our team members to slow down and embrace the impromptu moments that happen as well. We find it’s the spontaneous moments have high impact for both the care giver and the care receiver. Living In The Moment is the greatest gift we can give to anyone we serve during their journey.
Respite care at The Wentworth at Draper provides short-term breaks that relieve stress, restore energy, and promote balance. Caregiving is a demanding, difficult job and no one is equipped to do it alone. Getting help is as essential to the health and well-being of the caregiver as it can be for the patient.
The Wentworth at Draper has partnered with a trusted network of Hospice Care Providers* in Draper, UT, giving residents facing a life-limiting illness the ability and freedom to live comfortably and with dignity by offering the highest quality of life.
