Try These Different Modes of Communication for Memory Care

Using different modes of communication is a critical aspect of providing effective care for seniors with Alzheimer's or Dementia. By tailoring communication to each resident's individual needs and abilities, caregivers can help to reduce frustration, anxiety, and isolation, while fostering a sense of connection and community. Memory care communities, like MorningStar Memory Care in Beaverton, offer specialized care for seniors with Alzheimer's or Dementia. In addition to providing personalized care and support, MorningStar also emphasizes the importance of using different modes of communication to enhance the quality of life for seniors in memory care.

One of the primary reasons why using different modes of communication is important for seniors with Alzheimer's or Dementia is because these conditions can impact a person's ability to communicate effectively through speech alone. Seniors with Alzheimer's or Dementia may have trouble remembering words, may struggle to express themselves, or may experience confusion or disorientation. This can make it difficult for them to communicate their needs or feelings, which can lead to frustration, anxiety, or isolation.

Visual aids, gestures, and touch help to support seniors in memory care by making communication more seamless. For example, using picture books or other visual aids can help seniors to identify and express their needs, even if they are struggling to remember specific words. Using touch, such as holding a resident's hand or giving them a gentle hug, can also help to convey warmth and support, even if verbal communication is limited.

Another important benefit of using different modes of communication is that it can help to reduce feelings of isolation or loneliness among seniors in memory care. Memory care communities can be disorienting or overwhelming for seniors with Alzheimer's or Dementia, which can make them feel disconnected from the world around them. By using different modes of communication, caregivers can help to create a sense of connection and community, even if verbal communication is challenging.

Families can rest assured knowing their loved ones are receiving the very best modern and holistic memory care practices for memory care in Beaverton. MorningStar utilizes the latest technology and research in memory care to create an engaging and stimulating environment and lifestyle for residents. Offering a range of activities and programs, our assisted living is designed to promote social engagement, cognitive stimulation, and physical exercise. These activities not only enhance residents' quality of life, but they can also help slow the progression of dementia.

Open Your Mind to New Hobbies and Activities

How long has it been since you really made the effort to learn something new? As we age, many of us can get stuck in a rut. However, opening our minds to new ideas and trying new activities can provide seniors with a renewed interest in life and help keep the brain sharp. 

The choice of hobbies and activities for retirees is endless and includes dusting off old skills or learning something entirely new. Things like painting and drawing classes can be done in person or online. The same goes for listening to lectures, joining a book club or writing workshop, and learning a foreign language. If you need more computer skills or would like to know more about social media, join a class and get started. 

If you have always wanted to play an instrument, what are you waiting for? Neuroscientists and music teachers say it is never too late to learn. Scot Hawkins, a piano teacher in Silver Spring, Md., says, “Ability is low on the list of what's required for adult students. Instead, attitude — especially patience — is everything.” Playing music is a great mental exercise and can help keep brain cells alive that would otherwise wither and die.

Chess, trivia, crossword and jigsaw puzzles as well as strategy board games help sharpen our cognitive skills as do various computer and video games. Other suggestions of engaging activities include trips to local museums, concerts, and plays.

If so, we encourage you to consider MorningStar at Golden Ridge, conveniently located in a northwest suburb of Phoenix.  Our calendar is loaded with a wide range of activities and wellness programs including exercise classes, games, live entertainment and special events to promote a healthy, engaged lifestyle.

Research Shows Pets are Beneficial to Seniors

Research has shown pets are beneficial to seniors. A Place for Mom’s website reports on one study, which found “15 minutes spent bonding with an animal sets off a chemical chain reaction in the brain, lowering levels of the fight-or-flight hormone cortisol and increasing production of the feel-good hormone serotonin. The result: heart rate, blood pressure and stress levels immediately drop.” Researchers explain interactions between human and pets can lower cholesterol levels, fight depression and may even help protect against heart disease and stroke. 

Pets can teach seniors to live in the here and now as they do, and dogs and cats are great at offering their owners unconditional love, emotional support and affection. In fact, animals uplift the spirits of those in hospitals, convalescent homes, mental health centers, nursing homes, and assisted living communities through pet therapy programs. Moreover, pet therapy has proven beneficial for people with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. Experts point to the animal’s full acceptance and non-verbal communication as being soothing for patients.      

It was not that long ago that seniors moving into a 55+ community had to leave behind an important companion, their pet. Today however, more and more senior living communities are recognizing the benefits of pets to the elderly, and many such as MorningStar at Golden Ridge, allow residents to bring their pets with them. We do ask that you check with us regarding our pet policy.  

Please contact us with your questions regarding availability, choice of casitas or suites, pricing, care services and more. Our beautiful community offers 38 two-bedroom casitas for independent living and 65 suites for assisted living in a range of configurations to accommodate residents’ preferences and needs.   In addition, 35 secure memory care suites are devoted to those with Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related diseases. We look forward to hearing from you.

MorningStar takes tremendous pride in the reputation we have earned for excellence and authenticity since our inception in 2003.  We believe the human capacity to grow, to learn and to contribute is ageless; and we act upon that truth daily, as we care for, inspire, and love the residents under our roof.
