MEMORY CARE
With over 50 years of experience caring for individuals living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia, we understand the unique characteristics associated with Memory Loss.
Experience has shown us that while the challenges that accompany Memory Loss may be similar, no two people will experience them in the exact same way.
Country Manor has multiple communities designated to Memory Care.
In order for our team to provide the best care possible for the individuals we serve, we know that having access to a variety of programs, equipment, education, and tools is a necessity.
For an individual dealing with Memory Loss, every day is different and unpredictable. With the help of donors, we are able to adapt and adjust to meet the needs of each individual, throughout every step of their journey.

iN2L Systems
iN2L computer systems offer individualized programming for residents at the touch of a button. The advanced mobile system is known for delivering a person-centered, senior-friendly experience.
The interactive content library includes more than 4,000 items providing memory care, therapy sessions, and wellness activities at your fingertips. Plus, each resident has their own unique profile that they can customize - from personal family albums, a library of their favorite songs, special interest and hobby simulators, and more! When personally relevant to the senior, content is a powerful tool, capable of creating sparks, igniting joy and laughter, renewing interest in learning, revitalizing connections with others, and reawakening precious memories of a life well-lived.
With the help of our generous donors, we have been able to see firsthand the miracles these systems are capable of within our communities. Click here

Outdoor Areas
We are proud to be able to provide secure outdoor spaces for residents and their families in both our progressive memory-care neighborhood, Pioneer Village, and our beginning-stage memory-care neighborhood, East Commons.
These thoughtfully designed outdoor areas provide a safe and welcoming environment for individuals experiencing memory loss and their loved ones to enjoy the outdoors while ensuring their security and peace of mind. Our hope is for these beautiful settings to offer a sanctuary for connection and relaxation, enhancing the quality of life for all those in our care.
Serenity Babies
Our Serenity Babies program has had a profound impact on our communities. These lifelike "dolls," meticulously crafted to look and feel like real babies, have become a source of comfort and companionship, offering a gentle and heartwarming way to bridge the gaps created by memory loss.
Many residents find solace and a rekindled sense of connection to their past, embracing memories of motherhood, fatherhood, and the joys of raising children.
Storyworth Program
Every week, our memory care residents participate in one-on-one guided reminiscing sessions, where they share cherished stories from their past, such as their first dates with their future spouses and their first job experiences. These treasured memories are documented throughout the year. And at the end of the year, these memories are transformed into beautiful, hardcover keepsake books, filled with their unique life stories.
These keepsake books serve as an invaluable gift for families, providing a rare opportunity for younger generations to truly "know" and connect with their grandparents by reading these personal narratives, and stories of their lives as young people, told in their own words. Without this precious program, these priceless memories may have been lost. Your support ensures that these life stories continue to be celebrated, cherished, and preserved for generations to come.
