Memory Care
A Fresh Mission-Driven Approach to Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
Seasoned Leadership. Tenured, Experienced Caregivers.
An Environment Built for Comfort, Contentment, and Human Connection
With an intimate, homelike setting and decidedly un-institutional feel, our memory care household lives up to its name. It’s easy to navigate and features comfortable gathering areas that echo with sounds of structured daily activities and conversations between residents, their families, and staff members.
Just outside, our enclosed courtyard’s beautiful landscaping and seating provide the perfect setting for peaceful communion with nature. And because we’re just down the hall from the medical resources of our Long-Term Care neighborhood, the right care is available at a moment’s notice.
Person-Based Care That Helps Us Meet Your Loved One in Every Moment
In a flash, the world of a person with Alzheimer’s or dementia can go from sunny to stormy without warning. That’s why our experienced caregivers work with you to create a detailed profile of your loved one that includes, among other things:
- Significant people and relationships
- Academic and professional history
- Hobbies
- Favorite (and least favorite) foods, sports teams, and more
- Traumatic life events and potential triggers
Knowing these important things about your loved one helps us guide their daily journey to avoid negative triggers, engage with them in happy memories, and help compassionately end traumatic flashbacks.

Programs and Activities for Every Dimension of Wellness
With more than 120 live, on-campus events in a typical year, your loved one will enjoy experiences that will nurture their spirit, engage their senses, and express their individuality. They’ll also enjoy daily engagement activities, including:
- Music, dance, and art therapy
- Crafting
- Gardening
- Pet therapy
Opening Minds Through Art™ (OMA)
One of our most popular enrichment programs is Opening Minds Through Art (OMA), an evidence-based, intergenerational art program designed by the Scripps Gerontology Center for memory care residents. In OMA, residents with dementia collaborate and create art with specially trained students from nearby Otterbein College.
The program, which has received numerous best practice awards, has been listed as a Quality Improvement Project by the Ohio Department of Aging since 2015 and funded by the Ohio Department of Medicaid since 2016.
