Questions about Sage Park
Sage Park takes pride in offering our memory care staff the training and development they need to not only care for, but also empower, our residents to lead independent and enriched lives. Both classroom and hands-on training — designed specifically for caregivers in the memory care setting — are required upon hire and continue on an ongoing basis. This ensures two things:
If you’d like to learn more about the training requirements for our Gahanna memory care community staff, your local contact is eager to share that information. Contact us today to learn more.
Your level of involvement is completely up to you. Some families request to be notified of changes in condition, which we’re eager to accommodate, while other families would like to call or stop by daily to find out how their loved one is doing. We’re happy to accommodate that too.
At a bare minimum, we will always reach out to you before making changes to your loved one’s care plan, as soon as possible after a medical emergency, or if we note a change in their physical or mental health. Additionally, we always seek your participation in memory care planning once per quarter and upon changes in your loved one’s health.
Although we often use the word “secure,” a better word is “safe.” Secured memory care communities have a number of features that help your loved one stay safe including:
• Higher staff to resident ratios. This means closer oversight, more dedicated and personal one-on-one time with each resident.
• Fewer safety risks. Our communities are designed to accommodate the way residents with dementia and other age-related limitations think and act to prevent falls, burns, and other injuries (i.e., no stoves in personal suites and no stairs).
• Secure and alarmed doors. If your loved one tries to leave the facility without accompaniment, staff are notified and can join them.
We aim to ensure our secure memory care community in Gahanna is just as warm and inviting as independent and assisted living communities.
Both nursing homes and memory care facilities offer assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, oral care, and medication assistance. But only memory care communities are specifically designed around the needs of people living with dementia. Memory care communities are fully staffed with professionals who are committed to caring for people with these specific challenges.
The professionals at memory care communities have vast experience with dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other memory challenges. Staff members at memory care communities understand that all of your loved one’s behaviors are in response to a perceived situation.
These expert team members become detectives in order to get to the root of those responsive behaviors and resolve the response through a holistic approach. In contrast, nursing home staff may not receive the same training as memory care communities’ staff, and may therefore opt to sedate someone with challenging behaviors rather than resolve the response in another manner.
A memory care community will not only provide assistance with the activities of daily living, but will also provide specialized programming and care specific to your loved one’s needs.
It’s very challenging to compare in-home care to a memory care facility for several reasons. When calculating the cost of in-home care, it’s important to include:
• Mortgage or rent payments
• Lost wages for caregivers providing assistance
• Groceries and other dining costs (keeping in mind that you may be able to benefit from one meal a day from meals on wheels)
• In-house doctor’s visits (for those who choose this option)
• The cost of utilities
• Entertainment and therapies
• Medications
When you choose a memory care community instead, all of these components are included in one monthly rate, so no calculations are necessary. You know what to expect (and peace of mind is priceless).
