Memory Care
As we age, it is normal to experience a decline in memory or other thinking skills that reduce a person’s ability to perform everyday activities and tasks. Some residents and caregivers need additional support. At RWC our Memory Care Program is committed to maintaining the dignity of every individual with memory loss. We strive for the highest quality of care for those with memory loss to promote their best quality of life.
At RWC, our latest in continuum of care offerings is The Small House – a residential home for residents who are experiencing mild to moderate cognitive impairment or memory challenges.
The Small House is a residentially styled, specially equipped home with eight private suites each featuring a sleeping area, living space and a full private bathroom with shower. Residents can enjoy the large, bright activity space, full kitchen and home-like dining area, safe outdoor space, and engaging programming developed by the residents and a specially trained and dedicated team of employees.
At RWC, we are prepared for this eventuality with the following groups:
- Memory Support Groups
- Caregiver’s Support Group
- Persons with Early‐Mid Stage Dementia
We also work closely on programs and support with Ellie Galloway, Regional Director of the Northern Neck/Middle Peninsula Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.
