Care Traditions

Memory Care with Dignity, Respect and Support

At Saunders House, we understand that those with Alzheimer’s disease or other memory impairments have unique needs that demand special care and attention. We have created Care Traditions, a dedicated program to deliver this specialized care and support to our memory care residents.

Care Traditions is designed to enhance the quality of life for those with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. The program offers residents the freedom and dignity they deserve with the support they need.

Within the secure and comforting surroundings of the Care Traditions floor, therapeutic recreation specialists provide structured, meaningful activities that are best suited to the individual needs and desires of each of our residents. 

Engaging, Enriching Programs

Care Traditions takes a holistic approach to memory care, incorporating programming for the mind, body and spirit. We also encourage our residents to engage with others and enjoy enriching activities. Everything we do in Care Traditions promotes positive interactions among residents, staff, volunteers, family and friends.

We offer our residents freedom and dignity, along with plenty of opportunities for socialization based upon individual abilities and desires.  To foster a sense of belonging, residents living within Care Traditions are invited to join in our community-wide activities whenever possible. 

Peace of Mind

This specialized program is delivered in a dedicated area, providing our residents with an environment that is safe and secure. For added peace of mind, we offer a special bracelet for at-risk residents. The bracelet activates our alarm system should they try to leave a secure area.
