September is “National Good Neighbor Month,” and in the spirit of this special time, we would like to take the opportunity to share about a unique part of our senior living community – our Memory Care Neighborhood.
Here at The Fremont Senior Living we strive to make our Neighborhood a special place, not just for our residents, but for everyone who comes to visit and join in our daily festivities. We celebrate being good neighbors every day.
We call our Memory Care communities “Neighborhoods” because neighborhoods are safe, comfortable, and feel like home. They include familiar faces of neighbors, friends, and family who are always willing to lend a helping hand.
Ours is a special place for residents where everyone is welcomed into the neighborhood with open arms and minds. We care for each person based on their individual needs and values. We strive to know our residents on a personal level and care for them as our own.
We welcome all family and friends to join in all our events or even host one of their own. Family pets are always a big hit and residents love it when children come to visit! We will always be a supportive place for families.
September is also Alzheimer’s month. There are many ways to support people who are living with dementia. One important way is by listening and validating their feelings. To have someone understand and help guide them when they are scared and confused is a great gift.
We encourage everyone to be a “good neighbor” and find ways to engage and make a difference in the lives of individuals living with dementia. You don’t need to have a special talent, just a heart for others around you. If you would like more information about volunteering in a Memory Care Neighborhood near you or if you are caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia, we would love to help!
