We enjoyed visiting with families for our annual holiday dinner. Lots of laughter, singing carols, and enjoying a fabulous meal was just what we needed to make the holidays special. And we got an extra treat with a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus. (Thank you Jennifer and Steven with Desert Valley Hospice and Palliative Care!)

When a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, it's difficult to know what to do. Home care is simply not feasible for most families today. The alternative, institutionalization in the locked wing of a nursing home, is far from ideal.
In fact, most cognitively impaired people don't need the regimented care provided in a nursing home. What they need is a place designed specifically for them with an environment that feels like a home, not a hospital. We strive for a program of care that stresses individuality and interpersonal contact.
We never forget that individuals with Alzheimer's are individuals first, with unique backgrounds, personalities and interests. Moreover, the progress of memory loss varies in everyone, so that a level of care which is exactly right for one person might infringe upon the rights of another.
That's why we tailor the care of each of our residents to his or her needs. This highly personalized program is made possible by our small size and unusually high staff ratio.
Our philosophy of care is really quite simple. Focus on strengths, rather than weaknesses. Never stop trying to communicate. Be kind, always.
All of the staff at Barton House receive special training in working with the cognitively impaired. All are hired as much for their belief in the basic dignity of every person as for their professional skills.
