Find Hopeful & Compassionate Dementia Care
Watching a loved one navigate the challenges of dementia is a journey that requires immense strength and support.
If you’re exploring care options, you may feel overwhelmed and uncertain. We can offer a safe, nurturing place where your family member can thrive, while also providing you and your family support with navigating this journey.
At The Enclave at Newell Creek, we understand. Through our Lilac Trace memory care approach, we’re here to provide the answers, guidance, and exceptional care your loved one deserves, and the peace of mind you and your family are searching for.
What Is Dementia Care?
Dementia care is a specialized approach to senior living designed to support individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia through a structured, safe approach. Effective dementia care focuses on:
- Safety: Minimizing risks through secure, thoughtfully designed spaces.
- Dignity: Honoring each resident as an individual with a rich life history.
- Engagement: Providing daily opportunities for social connection and joy.
- Health: Managing medical needs with specially trained staff available 24/7.
It’s a holistic philosophy that supports not just the resident, but their entire family.
Is Dementia Care
the Same as Memory Care?
Yes, in the senior living industry, the terms dementia care and memory care are often used to describe the same specialized service.
While families often search for “dementia care” because it directly relates to a diagnosis, “memory care” is the common name communities use for their dedicated neighborhoods, programs, and specially trained teams. So, if you’re looking for dementia care in the Cleveland area, you are in the right place.
Our dedicated Lilac Trace memory care neighborhood offers the expert programming and compassionate support you’re seeking.
Who Is Dementia Care For?
While every person’s journey is unique, your loved one might benefit from a dedicated care environment if they are experiencing:
- Memory loss that disrupts daily life
- Increased confusion, agitation, or anxiety
- Difficulty with planning or completing familiar tasks
- Wandering or a risk of becoming disoriented
- Changes in mood, personality, or behavior
- Neglecting personal hygiene or nutrition
If these signs feel familiar, know that you are not alone and that specialized support can make a profound difference.
Our Approach to Alzheimer’s Care
Inspired by the best-selling Meet Me Where I Am—An Alzheimer’s Care Guide, our “Meet Me Where I Am” philosophy shapes every interaction our team has with our residents. We don’t focus on the abilities a person may have lost—we celebrate and engage the person standing before us.
Led by certified dementia practitioners, our team is dedicated to making each moment meaningful. This person-centered approach is woven into our R.E.A.C.H. for Life program, which creates a nurturing rhythm of daily life focused on achieving the 3 C’s of memory care.
We believe in providing care that’s as unique as the individuals we serve. By taking the time to understand each resident’s personal story, we can truly make a difference.
Through thoughtful tools like our “Moments in Time” questionnaire, customized wellness plans, and memory-focused programs, we build genuine connections and create an environment where residents feel appreciated, supported, and engaged every day.
We believe in working hand-in-hand with families to provide the best care for our residents.
With tools like the Bridge App for real-time updates, wellness conferences to keep everyone informed, and support groups to offer a place of comfort and connection, we’re here to make sure families are always part of the journey.
Our mission is to ensure families feel valued, supported, and confident in the care of their loved ones.
At Lilac Trace, we provide exceptional care in a warm, nurturing environment where every resident is treated with dignity and respect.
Our personalized services include customized dining experiences, careful medication management, engaging daily activities, lifelong learning opportunities, and the soothing benefits of music therapy—each designed to enhance overall well-being.
With compassionate support and innovative programs, we create a space where residents feel valued, supported, and truly at home.
