FAQs

Answers From a Trusted Memory Care Provider | Rio Rancho, New Mexico

Is memory care only for people with Alzheimer’s?

Our memory care extends its services to individuals who experience memory loss, encompassing Alzheimer’s and other conditions. Memory care is designed to address the needs and challenges associated with various forms of memory impairment.

Alzheimer’s is a prominent form of dementia characterized by memory, cognitive, and behavioral changes, but memory care encompasses a broader spectrum of memory-related impairments. Tailored to support individuals with different types of memory loss, it ensures that they receive the appropriate care, assistance, and resources needed to better their well-being and quality of life.

What is memory healthcare?

Memory healthcare is centered around enhancing and preserving cognitive function. This includes lifestyle adjustments such as managing stress, adopting a nutritious diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and getting sufficient sleep. Mental stimulation through cognitive training and engaging activities is an integral part of memory healthcare as well.

How do I know if my loved one needs memory care?

Deciding whether your loved one requires memory care involves assessing their cognitive abilities, daily functioning, the impact on caregivers, and their well-being. Here are some things to think about:

  • Lowered Memory: Memory care is a good option if your loved one experiences significant and progressive memory loss that disrupts their daily life and responsibilities.
  • Performance Difficulties: If they have issues performing essential daily activities, including but not limited to dressing, bathing, making food, or managing medications, memory care might be warranted. 
  • Security Concerns: Wandering, getting lost, or forgetting to perform critical tasks, like turning off the stove, are all associated with memory loss. If these occur, it’s worth it to consider a memory care community where your loved one’s well-being is paramount. 
  • Behavioral Changes: Abnormal changes in behavior, such as increased agitation, confusion, or withdrawal, can be signs of the need for memory care services.
  • Fatigued Caregivers: Providing care for those experiencing memory impairments can cause significant strain on family or primary caregivers. Considering memory care services might be beneficial for both the caregivers and their loved one.
