The Benefits of Holistic Memory Care for Seniors


Holistic memory care options for seniors with Alzheimer's are becoming increasingly helpful in remedying symptoms associated with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Holistic memory care has been shown to improve outcomes for seniors with dementia and provide them with the highest quality of life possible. By exploring all the Assisted Living options Littleton CO offers, you can be sure you’re making the right choice in Alzheimer’s care for a senior loved one struggling with a memory loss diagnosis.

Holistic Vs. Traditional Memory Care

Holistic memory care can be found in assisted living communities that focus on a person-centered approach to senior care. This means diet, exercise, therapy, lifestyle changes, and relaxation techniques are all considered for optimal senior care.

Traditional memory care relies mainly on medications to manage symptoms and behaviors.

Assisted Living communities that utilize holistic memory care address all aspects of the individual's well-being, focusing on their strengths, not pitfalls. Providing personalized care, promoting a positive environment, and offering a team approach have improved outcomes for seniors with memory loss.

Unlike traditional memory care approaches, holistic memory care offered at assisted living communities like MorningStar emphasizes the individual's strengths and abilities. A specialized care plan is tailored to individual needs, interests, and skills.

Seniors receiving holistic memory care in assisted living maintain a sense of identity and independence for as long as possible while also receiving an appropriate level of care. Our memory care team at MorningStar works selflessly to create a safe, supportive, and enjoyable environment e for seniors struggling with memory loss or Alzheimer’s.

The MorningStar Family

MorningStar Senior Living’s Founder and CEO, Ken Jaeger, first began forming the idea of starting a company from a desire to create senior living that was defined by the human touch. He says his intention was to “re-create my grandmother’s house, a place where one can go and feel a sense of family.” This simple but profound concept has driven the overwhelming success of our MorningStar brand. Now nearly seventeen years later, MorningStar continues to add communities across the Western U.S., including MorningStar Assisted Living & Memory Care of Littleton, in the Greater Denver area.

The Top Reasons Family Considers Assisted Living

Coming to the realization that your loved one may need support beyond what you can provide comes with difficult decisions to make regarding assisted living . Caregivers of family members and loved ones that have special needs or require extra help often experience their own hardships. Anxiety, depression, negative eating habits, financial strain and poor health are not rare when it comes to caring for an elderly parent or family member. Children of senior parents may feel shame in assessing senior living and assisted care, but these facilities can lessen that guilt and offer a peace of mind that your loved one is healthy, safe, and happy. You know your parent better than anyone and have developed a care routine that allows your parent to be close by or living in similar circumstances of their younger years. Sadly, this may not always be sustainable. Perhaps you have welcomed a new child, taken a new job where you will be around less often, or maybe have decided to move. If you are unab

Do they think assisted living homes are more like nursing homes of the past? We want to reassure you and your senior loved one that assisted living communities such as MorningStar at Mountain Shadows are not nursing homes.

It is important to a senior’s overall health that they receive proper care as the website Aging.com reports, “Functional status and the ability to care for oneself have a significant impact on a senior's quality of life. Unmet needs for help with activities of daily living can lead to malnutrition, poor personal hygiene, isolation, illnesses like urinary tract infections (UTIs), and falls.” In fact, studies show se
