Enhanced Memory Support

Alzheimer's Disease, dementia and other types of cognitive impairment rob a person of their short-term memory. It also affects their ability to reason and make decisions in a traditional way.
 
Hendry’s Neighborhood was specifically created as a safe and inviting environment that emphasizes the best parts of a person's remembered past and personal strengths. Links with family, life achievements, past careers, and hobbies are encouraged and included as part of the daily activities schedule.

Fourteen Studio Apartments all open onto a “Great Room”, including living, dining, kitchen and activities areas, as well as a home style kitchen. A raised clerestory roof allows natural light to stream into the common areas throughout the day, helping residents to establish a diurnal sense of day and night. A grand piano is staged in one portion of the main living room and is often the setting for musical recitals.

Meals are served throughout the day and are geared to those requiring small and frequent portions. We pride ourselves on a varied menu that really is as good as home-made (because it is). Snack times offer finger foods that residents can manage easily. Since hydration is such an important part of maintaining one's health, fresh juices, smoothies, and water are offered regularly by staff.
