Era Living Communities Recognize World Alzheimer’s Day

Memory & Brain Health, Senior Health & Wellness

September 21 is World Alzheimer’s Day. Most of us know someone with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, and see the impact that it has on family and friends.

 

Era Living communities provide care for people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Our partnership with the UW Medicine Memory and Brain Wellness Center empowers community teams to deliver the finest care for residents living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

 

For people with early stage Alzheimer’s and dementia, all Era Living communities offer a program called Memory Fitness. Memory Fitness is designed to help residents maintain cognitive health. For people with advanced Alzheimer’s and dementia, Era Living offers memory care on the Eastside, and in north Seattle. The Gardens at Town Square, in downtown Bellevue, has memory care residences available in The Terrace. Ida Culver House Broadview offers memory care inside the Health Care Center.

 

This month, Era Living communities are also taking action to support Alzheimer’s research, and raise awareness about the disease.
