Cape Memory Care is a residence thoughtfully designed to serve individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other related memory impairments. Established in 2010 in the scenic town of Cape Elizabeth, the community offers a gracious and comfortable environment tailored specifically to enhance the quality of life for those with memory loss. The architectural and interior design of Cape Memory Care sets it apart, featuring elegant touches in both its furnishings and overall layout, all created with the unique needs of its residents in mind. Every element of the environment has been carefully considered, drawing from years of collective experience and proven concepts in memory care.
The community provides both private and double-occupancy rooms, understanding that some individuals find reassurance in sharing their space with a roommate, while others may prefer solitude. This flexibility allows for personalized living arrangements to help residents feel secure and supported. Monthly rental fees are based on a daily rate that corresponds to the selected room type, and the community operates on a month-to-month rental basis, offering predictability and transparency for families.
Cape Memory Care offers a wide array of services, all included in the monthly rental fee. Staff members are extensively trained not just on essential topics like fire safety and infection control, but also in understanding resident rights and the varying needs of those living with memory impairments. Ongoing professional development ensures that the team can deliver expert, compassionate assistance tailored to each resident. To further support residents’ health and well-being, an onsite program offers skilled nursing and therapy services, though individuals are welcome to make alternate arrangements if they so desire.
The transition into Cape Memory Care begins with a thorough assessment to ensure that the needs of each individual can be adequately met. The community recognizes the importance of supporting families through this process and is committed to providing the information and guidance needed to make informed decisions. The overall atmosphere is one of warmth, safety, and dignity, with a strong focus on comfort and peace of mind for both residents and their loved ones. Each detail of daily life—from the physical surroundings to the comprehensive care and activity programming—reflects a deep commitment to the well-being and happiness of those who call Cape Memory Care their home.
