Aegis Living Callahan House is thoughtfully designed to provide a warm, supportive environment, specialized for individuals experiencing memory loss from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The community is distinctly organized into four smaller living areas. Each of these areas has its own dedicated team, dining room, common area, and secure courtyard, ensuring that residents are cared for in a cozy and intimate setting. This structure allows for personalized, one-on-one attention from a highly trained team, equipped to meet the evolving needs of residents through every stage of memory loss. The mission at Callahan House is to ease the symptoms of dementia, foster meaningful engagement, and celebrate the unique life and experiences of every individual resident.

Services include Light Assisted Living, tailored to help residents maintain maximum independence while ensuring safety; Assisted Living, providing personal and healthcare support for daily living activities; Transitional Care, specifically designed to progressively assist those with mild to moderate memory loss within the comfort of assisted living; and Memory Care, with a specialized area known as Life’s Neighborhood that supports those with more advanced memory loss. In addition, the community is prepared to deliver compassionate End-of-Life Care to enhance quality of life and comfort during the final stages. For families needing temporary care, the home also provides Respite Care for short-term stays that can range from light daily assistance and post-surgery support to memory care.
