As we age, many individuals may notice changes in their memory compared to when they were younger. Occasional forgetfulness, such as misplacing keys or missing appointments, can be a natural part of aging. However, some older adults experience more significant memory loss that affects their daily lives. It's important to distinguish between dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, as they are distinct conditions often confused with each other. Unfortunately, many of our loved ones will encounter some form of dementia, with Alzheimer's being a common type. That's why understanding the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's is crucial for all of us. Learn more about these distinctions on our blog! #AgingAndMemory #DementiaAwareness #AlzheimersAwareness #CaregivingTips #MemoryCare #SeniorLiving #Blog

According to the Mayo Clinic, dementia is a group of symptoms that affect memory, thinking and social abilities in an estimated 55 million people worldwide. However, a study conducted by Northwestern University found that music creates an emotional connection between those with dementia and their caregivers by allowing them to interact with music through singing, dancing and playing instruments.

Volunteering is a great way to get our residents involved in the community! 🤝 Last week, our Maplewood at Southport residents partnered with Operation Hope to provide bagged lunches for those in need. The residents made sandwiches and added chips, fruit, and condiments to each lunch. Operation Hope of Fairfield provides individuals and families with the opportunity to experience transformative change. Their programs focus on eliminating hunger and homelessness, helping people solve their crises, and building stability in an environment where compassion inspires dignity and hope.
