What Services Do Assisted Living Communities Provide for Those with Memory Disorders?

Posted by Mandy Quinn on July 31st, 2022

Many families in Texas may choose to move their loved ones who have memory disorders to assisted living residences when they are no longer able to provide the care they need as their disease progresses. The Cottages provide a warm, caring environment to their residents. The staff at The Cottages are caregivers, housekeepers, chefs, and administrators, but most importantly, they become a family member to all of their residents.

The services provided to residents include:

• Daily living  – Residents receive assistance with all aspects of daily living, with all-inclusive pricing and no hidden fees. The services include highly qualified staffing (24-hour), daily laundry and housekeeping, access to daily nursing, monitoring, specialized activities for Alzheimer’s at all of its stages, menu evaluation and much more.

• Respite care – This is for those seeking a temporary arrangement, or for those caregivers in need of rest. Respite care covers any amount of time, and The Cottages are fully furnished to address the needs of residents in need of respite care. Respite care is available at all locations throughout Texas, offering the same level of care and all aspects of daily living. The Cottages provides fully furnished rooms or apartments for respite care residents. Respite care can last for a few days up to one month.

• Family support – Loved ones that have a family member with memory loss disorders receive help through support groups, grief counselling, and ongoing caregiver support.
