What Does Embrace Offer?
The principles upon which we built Embrace – Wellness, Enrichment, Challenge, Connection and Creativity – direct our philosophy for those living with dementia. The programs in Embrace provide our residents opportunities to be engaged to experience socialization, connection, and meaningful moments. These programs include:
- Bookmarks is a reading program designed for residents with Alzheimer’s and related dementias providing support through the exploration of the written word. Reading material is specifically selected to allow residents’ success and adapted for their cognitive levels. The material serves as topics for discussion and a bridge to other program offerings.
- Essence is a personalized, multi-sensory experience designed to support each of our residents on their unique journey. The goal is to provide a sensory-based program with the potential to complement existing treatments for the resident. The Essence signature program won the Argentum Best of the Best award in 2016 & 2017.
- Snapshots is designed to provide emotional wellness to both the resident and their family. Through education, programs and support, we focus on keeping family and residents connected through the integration of technology and communication.
- Spark is a lifestyle enrichment program intended to promote cognitive stimulation, connection, and social engagement among residents. Several initiatives in the program provide opportunities to offer not only a variety of programs at various levels but also offer multiple choices to our residents.
- Thymeless is a garden-to-table food program for older adults with dementia. It focuses on empowering memory care residents to grow and prepare healthy, fresh food. Developing habits, skills, and passions in the garden or food preparation and continuing to use them can help residents to feel accomplished, productive, and successful.
