MillBrook Homes has been recognized as a “Leader in Dementia Care” by the Alzheimer’s Association. People with memory impairments require patient and understanding care from staff well trained in Dementia care. We incorporate a familiar lifestyle into a dignified and comfortable residential setting. Research has shown that people with dementia respond better in a home environment as opposed to a large institutional setting. Long hall ways and large dining rooms are often disturbing to people with dementia. Our homes that specialize in dementia care are secure homes to offer families peace of mind for those who may be at risk of wandering. Our activities include special programs designed by the Alzheimer’s Association.
