Expressions Memory Care
Expressions Memory Care :
Special care is needed when an illness or disability brings about memory loss, confusion or disorientation. Activity programs designed for healthy adults are often too stressful for a person with dementia.
Expressions Memory Care is different. It’s based on the philosophy that activity is more effective when it becomes a rhythm of everyday life.
We focus on the activities of daily living, which are challenging enough for
individuals with memory care needs. We incorporate effective communication and
memory keys into a personalized program that accommodates each individual’s
unique interests and abilities.
Most importantly, we take care of the details so you can focus on the more positive aspects of the relationship with your loved one.
Expressions is now available with temporary or full-time residence. An Expressions community includes specially designed housing apartments to help keep your loved one safe and secure, while a highly trained staff bestows the kindness, understanding, patience and reassurance they deserve 24 hours a day.

Our focus is to help relieve pain and other symptoms so residents can live comfortably and alert while maintaining a reasonable course of medical care 24 hours a day. We work cooperatively with the resident and their family to coordinate the delivery of psychological, emotional and spiritual support consistent with each individual’s beliefs and wishes.
We honor living wills, advance directives, and we welcome the involvement of outside counselors, therapists, social workers, aides and volunteers. Visitors of all ages are also welcome to visit residents under hospice care at any time during the day or night.

Personal Exercise Program
Personal Exercise Program :
(PEP) is a personal exercise program developed by Prestige Senior Living to enhance the independence, strength and energy of assisted living residents. The optional program supports aging in place by helping residents stay healthy, safe and strong. Participants also benefit from improved circulation, greater endurance, better balance and an overall boost in energy.
The program is based on an individualized program of simple exercises developed by the PEP coordinator according to physician recommendations and the resident’s personal goals. Results are monitored continually and the program is modified as needs change.
The PEP coordinator also oversees each session and provides participants with one-on-one encouragement and assistance as needed – similar to a personal trainer.
If appropriate, the coordinator may suggest that the resident ask their primary care physician for a referral to a physical or occupational therapist. The coordinator may also work closely with resident’s physical, occupational or other therapist to help complete a prescribed exercise regime or continue recommended exercise after therapy is discontinued.

Retreat Stays
Retreat Stays :
Most people take a while to recover from a temporary incapacity caused by illness, injury or surgery. You may be feeling better, but you may not be ready to resume your normal daily routine.
Perhaps, you are one of the thousands of people across the United States who
voluntarily cares for a loved one, 24-hours a day and every day of the year. For the well-being of both the caregiver and the individual receiving care, it’s vital that you take an occasional, temporary break.
Then again, maybe you want to check us out for a while and “experience” what it’s like to live in our beautiful community.
No matter the reason, Prestige offers a wonderful option that combines temporary residency with full access to all community services and amenities for just such situations.
The Retreat Stay Program offers:
• Affordable daily rates
• Fully furnished personal apartment
