Purposely Designed

Our specially trained staff will help you choose which neighborhood is the best fit for your loved one. When it comes time to transition to another level of care, we make sure your loved one’s environment stays consistently welcoming, with all the familiar comforts and visual details they’ve come to know and appreciate.

Personalized Care
A Roundtable discussion is the first step in your loved one’s journey to personalized Memory Care at Aiken Memory Care. This is where your family and our team of professional caregivers come together to create a care plan uniquely tailored to your loved one. Together, we navigate how to talk to your loved one about the move to Memory Care and what personal care services are needed to best support your loved one with the daily activities of living. It’s our chance to begin the process of learning your loved one’s preferences and interests and to assess what level of cognitive care will be the best fit. Once we finalize an initial individualized care plan, we’ll schedule a thorough reassessment every 90 days to make certain we’re always in step with current needs and developments.
