These Everyday Activities Promote Brain Health in Seniors Dealing with Memory Loss

Some of the first signs of Alzheimer's or other memory loss diseases is often the struggle to complete everyday tasks or activities one once enjoyed. You may notice that your parent or loved one needs help to remember how to do things they used to do regularly or were skilled in. While they may struggle, this does not mean that they have lost interest or ability to do their activities, but that they may require extra support to complete these tasks while adjusting to memory loss. At MorningStar Senior Living, our community can mentally, physically, and emotionally support your loved one.

Choosing an assisted living facility specializing in memory care is the best decision to ensure your loved one continues their usual enriching activities in a safe environment. While many senior living facilities differ, MorningStar at Beaverton offers memory care that recognizes the importance of encouraging our residents to participate in everyday activities. 

While there is an array of amenities and activities that MorningStar offers, a popular one that actively promotes brain health in our residents dealing with memory loss includes the attraction of our grand piano. Music can profoundly impact individuals with memory loss, according to the Alzheimer's disease research center. The piano is open to our residents, and we encourage them to practice or show off their skills. However, if your loved one can no longer fully participate in playing piano, listening to another play still encourages brain health and can promote more memory recollection. 

We like to have a hands-on approach to our residents' specialized memory care needs dealing with memory loss. Our holistic approach to senior living means it is not uncommon to see residents working in the kitchen, helping employees with clerical work, or tending to one of our gardens. Participating in everyday activities promotes recognition and enrichment.
