Sage Oak of Denton, a leading boutique senior living community, has powered up its dementia care even more with its new curated approach. The initiative aims to redefine the standards of personal memory care by recognizing and addressing the unique needs of individuals with dementia.
Traditionally, memory care communities use a one-size-fits-all approach, grouping residents solely based on their dementia diagnoses. That can leave new residents feeling frustrated and upset; their families might feel anxious and even guilty for trying to do what’s best for them.
Knowing the limitations of this technique, we took a bold step to provide families a more personalized and effective solution.
Curated Care Empowers Our Residents
Curated senior personal care at Sage Oak starts by meticulously assessing each resident, considering mobility, social needs, interests, dietary preferences, and cultural concerns. Unlike the industry norm, we don’t confine all dementia residents to a single memory care area. Instead, we divide our residents into smaller, more specialized groups based on their needs and cognitive function.
“We understand that dementia is a highly individualized condition. Each person experiences its onset and progression differently,” explains Loe Hornbuckle, CEO and Founder of Sage Oak. “Our curated care ensures that our residents find not just a home, but the right one tailored to their unique requirements.”
We Value Our Family Members
Each caregiver’s skills are optimized in this curated model, enhancing residents’ overall quality of care. But Sage Oak’s commitment to personal memory care doesn’t only apply to our residents: Family members also gain access to a phenomenal team with expertise in working with individuals at similar cognitive levels.
The traditional way of dementia care is limiting and largely strips people of their personhood. Our new, curated approach to personalized senior care enables families to choose the best house for their loved ones on the Sage Oak campus among other residents at the same cognitive level. They feel included, valued, and at home in an environment catering to their strengths and needs.
