What Is Memory Care?
Memory care is a lifestyle dedicated to assisting older adults living with cognitive conditions such as Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. We use a holistic approach to memory care focused on building strong relationships between residents and staff and encouraging residents to stay connected to their long-term memories.
Supported by The Peregrine Way®, our philosophy empowers residents to pursue daily personal growth and remain connected to themselves.
What Can Memory Care Address?
Personalized, compassionate, and accessible care can be essential to the well-being of adults living with cognitive challenges and memory conditions. Memory care can be helpful for those affected by Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other forms of dementia.
Our staff members are specifically trained in dementia care and receive sensitivity training, so they have the tools they need to care for your loved one with patience and compassion.
Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most common forms of dementia. It typically occurs in those 65 and older, and it can have a significant impact on your loved one’s quality of life. Common Alzheimer’s symptoms include memory problems, mood swings, and other challenges with daily living.
Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disorder often characterized by shakiness and stiffness. It can also cause depression, memory loss, fatigue, issues with sleep, and cognitive challenges that can be addressed with supportive memory care.
Other Forms of Dementia
Dementia is a general term describing a wide range of cognitive and language impairments that can negatively affect a person’s quality of life. The symptoms can vary from person to person, but often include confusion, memory loss, hallucinations, and changes in personality.
Choosing Memory Care for Your Loved One
Dementia can profoundly affect seniors and their family members. Because of its impact on quality of life, being a primary caregiver to those with memory care can become complicated, especially when your loved one’s safety feels at risk.
Memory care can offer the support your loved one may need and help you focus more on spending quality time with them.
Some of the signs it may be time to consider a memory care lifestyle are listed below. If you have questions about memory care or need support, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Wandering
If your loved one often finds themselves in unfamiliar situations, has unexplained bruises or injuries, or wanders without cognition, it may be time to consider your loved one’s memory care options.
Behavioral Changes
A drastic shift in personality can be another indicator of dementia or associated conditions. Mood swings, personality changes, and neglecting personal hygiene are common behaviours associated with dementia.
Forgetfulness
Forgetting important dates and appointments, neglecting to eat or make meals, or not taking proper medications can be indicators of dementia.

Our Testimonials
We made the difficult decision to move my mother into assisted living two years ago following my dads passing. She has done so well at Peregrine and we couldn’t be happier. She receives great care each and every day. She frequently tells people that if you can’t live at home, then Peregrine is the next best place to live! We are grateful to all of the staff for the love and compassion they extend to her and to our entire family.
Cheektowaga
My friend, Kathy, entered assisted living at Peregrine in October. She was treated like part of a family. From the nurses, to the administration, to the housekeeping, they showed nothing but kindness and caring. She has recently had to be transferred to memory care and the quality of the staff has not changed a bit. It is a relief knowing she is in such loving hands during this challenging time. I would highly recommend Peregrine to those who need this level of care.
