Cypress Street, our Alzheimer’s Care neighborhood, is under medical and psychiatric direction and offers a secure and nurturing setting for individuals in various stages of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
At Cypress Street, we understand the challenges faced by patients experiencing memory loss and confusion in their day-to-day lives, caused by various types of dementia. Designed to fill every moment of each day with life-enhancing experiences, our specialized Alzheimer’s & Dementia Recreation Program focuses on eliciting and sustaining positive emotions, maintaining dignity and quality of life, and creating moments of success. The dementia care program is directed daily by a full-time Certified Activity Director, credentialed as a Certified Dementia Practitioner.
Our care partners in this secured neighborhood are well-trained in the most recent advances in treatment for people with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease. In addition, every one of our employees undergoes intensive training developed by the Alzheimer’s Association to ensure they are uniquely attuned and sensitive to our residents’ singular needs. Family members can have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in good hands. We believe that every behavior represents an unmet need and never turn to medication as an easy solution. Under our care, medication levels are brought down significantly!
