Our smaller environment and high staffing ratio allow us to provide specialized individual activities for the residents. Research shows that keeping our minds active not only helps maintain our mental functions, but may actually improve abilities even in individuals with dementia.
We know that individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of memory impairment vary in their level of ability. A deficit in one of our senses is often compensated by another sense. Engaging and stimulating as many of the five senses as often possible increases the likelihood of a “connection” between the resident and the activity.
Dodge Park is #1 in Massachusetts from Caring.com in Rest Home and Memory Care for the past 6 years. Nationwide, there are only 67 Caring Super Stars in 2018, so Dodge Park Rest Home truly stands out as among the top senior living communities in the country.
