Why Choose Stonebridge at Montgomery for Memory Care?

Being in a familiar place is a huge source of comfort to people who need memory care. At the same time, however, keeping a loved one at home can become increasingly difficult — and most spouses and adult children lack the necessary skills and time to provide the caliber of care they’d like to.  

It can be a confusing and heart-wrenching time. 

At Stonebridge at Montgomery, we provide leading-edge care in a secure, homelike setting. Our memory care neighborhood has just 21 private apartments, creating a feeling of intimacy and comfort that’s reinforced by a consistent team of universal caregivers.  

Just beyond the memory care neighborhood, residents benefit from the wide variety of services and amenities available on the rest of the Stonebridge at Montgomery Life Plan Community  campus, including a full-service wellness clinic.

It’s this combination of superior services and familiar surroundings that eases the minds of family members, who want to know that their loved ones are safe and receiving high-quality care around the clock.

We see that as a good start, but it’s certainly not the end. Rather, it lays the foundation for our most important mission: providing person-centered care that seeks to do far more than keep residents safe and comfortable. 

Making a Difference With Person-Centered Care

A person facing dementia could receive the most accurate assessment and diagnosis, be provided with a detailed care plan, and have the benefit of familiar and pleasant surroundings, but still fail to connect with others and enjoy life in the moment.

The missing ingredient? The deep sense of dignity and respect that can only happen through truly getting to know a person. 

Person-centered care isn’t easy to explain because it’s not one size fits all. Instead, we consider each person’s unique background, vocational skills, and preferences when coming up with tailored activities and interventions, empowering them to feel respected, fulfilled, and connected to the community around them.

If your loved one is an avid gardener, for example, a team member might help her start seedlings or take a stroll outside to identify flowers together. A musician would be able to listen to music and enjoy the sounds with others around them. A former English literature professor could work with a team member to come up with a reading list to share with his children and grandchildren.

Even small details like those can decrease agitation and depression and improve quality of life, making the difference between what the Alzheimer’s Association calls “ill-being” and “well-being” in its Dementia Care Practice Recommendations.
