Memory Care
Cognitive Care for Those Suffering From Memory Impairment.
Vanderbilt Senior Services specializes in providing resources and information for memory care and cognitive activities for families that have a loved one struggling to live with diseases such as Alzheimer's and dementia. Our team works to provide information you need at various stages, and provide resources so you can get the help you need.
MEMORY IMPAIRMENT COMES IN MANY FORMS.
UNDERSTANDING HOW IT AFFECTS PATIENTS CAN HELP IN TREATING THE SYMPTOMS.
Not all people experience dementia the same way, and not all will progress through the increasing stages. Dementia is characterized as an impairment of brain functions. This can include motor function, social skills, emotion, and even memory.
Cognitive activities that stimulate brain function can help. For example, music is known to stimulate the brain on a deeper level, leaving to improvements in mood. The brain is known to correlate memories and feelings with certain melodies, which can also offer lucid moments of remembering, even if for a short while.
We also ensure that our community remains a part of a larger group for additional support and information.
UNDERSTANDING THE SIGNS OF DEMENTIA
Dementia begins with mild forgetfulness that one might associate with normal aging. As the disease progresses, it can increase that forgetfulness, making it more difficult to stay on track or communicate. The disease can continue to grow, making it difficult to remember directions, people, and eventually to perform motor functions.
