Specialized Memory Care at MorningStar of Albuquerque
In addition to assisted living, Albuquerque, NM’s MorningStar community provides suites devoted to the care of seniors with Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related diseases. MorningStar of Albuquerque is a part of the MorningStar Senior Living company, which was founded in 2003 and has 40+ communities in eleven states either in operation or under construction.
At MorningStar, our approach to memory care is designed around our comprehensive program we call “Lavender Sky.” Our philosophy encourages us to walk alongside a resident as we thoughtfully enter, embrace and explore the world of dementia. With insight and intentionality, we enter into our memory-impaired residents’ “purple world” to cross over the physical and emotional boundaries that would otherwise separate us. We also educate the families of those afflicted with dementia on how to follow our lead and enter too.
Another important aspect of our unique methodology is to accept the diagnosis of dementia and embrace the fact (we know it is difficult) that this is the path we must take together. By embracing a deep understanding of the disease, it allows us to embrace the necessary changes in our own communication style as well as physically embrace residents with the power of touch. And most importantly we embrace hope.
Finally, Lavender Sky explores a boundless variety of resourceful and individualized solutions for we recognize that what works today may not work tomorrow. When memory care residents come to MorningStar of Albuquerque, we explore the person’s life including their background, interests and preferences to create a specialized care plan.
As you can see, memory care at our senior care community springs from a deep understanding of the disease and is offered with the utmost love and compassion. Please visit our website to learn more about senior living, our staff and the philosophy that guides our care.
