Experienced Memory Care
We have been specializing in memory care for more than 30 years and we have learned: If you have met one person with dementia, you have met one person with dementia. Each person is different, and each situation is unique. Our approach at ActivCare is to get to know the individual, evaluate health concerns, assess the care needs, and understand the situation. We do this by asking questions, meeting the prospective residents and families, and becoming an advocate for their care with medical professionals.

What is Memory Care and how do you assist with conditions like Alzheimer's and Dementia?
Memory Care is a specialized type of assisted living specifically designed for those with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias. These senior living communities are licensed by the Department of Social Services as Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly. The specific purpose of memory care communities is to provide a safe and secure environment for those with Alzheimer’s disease or other related dementia. Our caregivers are specially trained to care for those with memory loss and our days are structured in a way to help provide our residents with familiar routines.
Our Community Approach
ActivCare has been helping those with Alzheimer’s and related dementias for over 30 years in California. Our founder, W. Major Chance was dedicated to improving the conditions for those with memory loss, and his efforts helped lead to the first state legislation in California to allow for secured perimeters in assisted living environments, in turn increasing safety and security at communities across the state, including ActivCare Living.
Each ActivCare community encompasses three elements: a specially designed residential environment, an engaging and appropriate activity program, and a team of compassionate, specially trained caregivers.
Based on an adult care model, our structured activity program is engaging, varied and comprehensive. We offer opportunities for residents to exercise physical, creative, social, and cognitive abilities every day. Our team leaders encourage resident involvement providing purpose and building self-esteem.
Our Approach to Memory Care:
- Specially designed communities that provide a welcoming, residential environment that is safe and secure and easy to navigate.
- An activity program designed to engage residents, at every stage of the disease, and promote their self-esteem—restoring feelings of usefulness and increasing their ability to celebrate life in their own special way.
- Daily routines and schedules are planned to provide purpose that focuses energy and anxiety into meaningful participation while minimizing wandering and restlessness.
- Highly trained and compassionate caregivers are scheduled around the clock. License nurse support is on-site 7 days a week.
