How Mayberry Gardens Supports Family Involvement
At Mayberry Gardens, we know that memory care is more than just providing care for those living with dementia. It’s about creating a warm, supportive environment where residents can thrive, and where families remain an integral part of their loved one’s lives. We believe that strong family involvement is vital for overall well-being, especially for those navigating the challenges of memory loss.
That’s why we go above and beyond to encourage and facilitate family visits and participation in our community. We understand that each family is unique, and we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere where families feel supported and connected.
Open Door Policy: Welcoming Families with Open Arms
We believe that families should feel comfortable visiting their loved ones whenever they wish. That’s why we have an open-door policy, allowing families to visit at any time that’s convenient for them and their loved one.
We understand that life can get busy, and sometimes schedules don’t always align. That’s why we offer flexible visiting hours and are always happy to accommodate special requests whenever possible. We want families to feel welcome and at ease in our community.
Creating a Home Away from Home
We strive to create a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like an extension of home. Our comfortable common areas, cozy living spaces, and beautiful outdoor areas provide a welcoming environment for families to spend quality time with their loved ones.
Whether it’s sharing a meal together, enjoying a cup of coffee in our garden, or simply reminiscing over old photos, we want families to feel at home in our community.
Beyond the Visit: Engaging Families in Meaningful Ways
We believe that family involvement goes beyond just visiting. That’s why we offer various opportunities for families to actively participate in their loved one’s care and engage in meaningful activities together.
We encourage families to share their loved one’s life stories, favorite activities, and preferences with our staff. This helps us create personalized care plans that cater to each resident’s unique needs and interests. We also invite families to participate in activities and events, such as holiday celebrations, musical performances, and outings to local attractions. These shared experiences create lasting memories and strengthen family bonds.
Communication is Key: Keeping Families Informed
We understand that communication is crucial for families, especially when their loved one is living with memory loss. That’s why we maintain open and transparent communication with families, providing regular updates on their loved one’s care and well-being.
Our staff is always available to answer questions, address concerns, and provide support to families. We also utilize technology to facilitate communication, such as sharing photos and videos of residents through our secure online portal.
