​
Imagine the peace of mind you'll have knowing that your loved one is getting the best care possible while living in an environment that's specifically designed for someone with dementia.
​
A place to be looked after by a dedicated care team that's trained to help with the experience of living a happier, more fulfilled life.
A Life Changing Decision
​
Your loved one may already be experiencing symptoms of disorientation and confusion that's severely affecting their life.
You know they need help but moving to any home other than their own is embarrassing because they don't know how to openly express the challenges they're having with the changes in their medical condition.
Living with Dementia is physically and mentally draining and trying to cope with it at home alone can be difficult. If you're the caregiver, you'll begin to notice all types of changes that appear to be abnormal; even to the point of your loved one experiencing embarrassing side effects like incontinence, forgetfulness and unexplained fear, These changes along with others could eventually end up driving you to a point where you're simply exhausted causing you to realize that you just can't cope with your loved one living at home anymore.
The key to living well and thriving with Dementia is to recognize you're dealing with a life changing situation and understand that you more than likely have to make a heart wrenching decision that's best for everyone who's in your loved one's life.
Why feel overwhelmed when there's a solution? We're here to help you and answer any questions you have about your options for residential care.
Full Time Care Can Help You
​
Choosing the right dementia care home is critically important for your loved one's continued care and success. Especially if it means making decisions that affects your quality of everyday life.
At Morning Dove, we've created the ideal place to ease the daily stress and anxiety for any one living with Dementia because we want your loved one to experience the very best in life. Here's why...
-
Morning Dove is dedicated to dementia care - As dementia care specialist, our staff has built up the tremendous practical knowledge needed to care for people who have dementia.
-
Exceptional staff training - What ever the type of behavior, we have experienced staff that knows how to deal with it in the best way possible. We invest heavily in the latest techniques and training for staff members to increase their understanding of how those living with dementia see and understand the world. The improved understanding allows us to provide more effective care for your loved one.
-
We are the Lexington Awards' Choice for quality care - Our reputation for being able to help improve the lives of seniors is so good that we've been selected by the Lexington Awards two consecutive years as the best small business in the Lexington area in the category of Assisted Living.
-
Engaging and Mind Stimulating Activities - We have activities that are based on individual wishes, interests and abilities because we know that being active and engaged is vital to living the highest possible quality of life. Our activities include interacting with animals, experiencing nature, gardening in our raised garden, visiting interesting and thought provoking places, singing karaoke and songs, engaging in crafts and games and enjoying visitors and entertainment.
-
A feeling of home and family - Large, corporate designed and decorated homes with master chefs and many rooms may look good on the first visit but they come with several major drawbacks when it comes to caring for someone with dementia. Here's 3 of the top reason's why...
-
First, the place is huge and huge is not the most ideal setting for someone with dementia. It can be very difficult for them to get familiar and equally difficult for staff to get to know all the residents by name.
-
Morning Dove is smaller than the larger assisted living homes. Being a 4 bed home means all the staff know our small community of residents very well which helps us understand their individual needs better; leading to better care.
2. Second, it's more difficult for a large home with many
residents to get individualized care due to low staff to
resident ratio.
Morning Dove provides intimate, individualized care with low staff turnover. One of the many reasons why we're able to provide high levels of care.
3. Third, larger homes are anonymous. The owners are
unknown. Every hallway and common area is
commercialized and conversations are scripted.
Morning Dove is designed to make it easy for people living with dementia with space that is conducive enough to recognize each room and their purpose. Our floor plan help eliminate anxiety that comes along with the confusion and fear of being in an unknown place and our owner is available when needed.
