At University Village Assisted Living & Memory Care, our staff members are 100% dedicated to the comfort, life enrichment and genuine happiness of all our residents and their loved ones. Our program emphasizes a Personal Touch Philosophy of care for those with Alzheimer's and various forms of dementia.
Our Personal Touch begins with the knowledge of history of each resident, as well as the education and understanding of the disease process. All of our staff goes through an extensive training on Dementia & Alzheimer's disease. Once we assess the resident, a tailored life program is then developed and delivered through each caregiver. With our Personal Touch philosophy, we develop close bonds between residents, their families, and our caregivers. This is the foundation for the friends helping friends approach to the Personal Touch philosophy. This may be the answer you have been seeking.
As in most wonderful neighborhoods, at University Village friends take care of friends. A life of stress-free living and familiar activities are found, once again, at University Village Memory Care.
Our unique community was designed with the residents in mind, providing an atmosphere that is inviting and comfortable for both your loved one and you. Upon visiting University Village, you will feel more like you are in someone's home rather than a care facility.
Our beautiful and home-like community is comprised of four distinct neighborhoods. The building was designed with the intention of having an amazing amount of natural light, which in turn helps with sleep patterns as well as mood. Each neighborhood offers a sense of home and comfort, reducing the feelings of loneliness and confusion. We understand how important this is to our residents and their loved ones.
Our philosophy for care strives to create a specialized environment that will afford each individual maximum self-expression. The staff is committed to creating a quality of care that meets the resident's physical, social, spiritual and emotional needs.
