Pet therapy has many different benefits. Animals are amazingly gentle and intuitive and have gained recognition as an effective non-pharmacological treatment that can help decrease anxiety, reduce loneliness, lower blood pressure and even trigger the release of endorphins that boost our mood! We love when Lexie visits The Waterford at Decatur.

Our backyard is the perfect place to have a family stroll. The lush grass, the bright new white fence and winding walking path, it’s a safe and secure welcoming place for our residents to wander too. The path offers gentle guidance, helping those with memory loss find comfort, calm, and joy in the journey. Every stroll is a chance to explore, stretch, and smile—because even with dementia, the path can still feel familiar and full of wonder.
