This type of residence is housed in Assisted Living but has been specially designed to support the older adult with dementia. Many who suffer from the various forms of dementia show a wide range of capabilities. The programs are designed to maintain an individual's independence as their capabilities decline. Here, the resident receives more extensive monitoring, directing and personal care than in the general population of Assisted Living.

The United Methodist Homes of NJ has a beautiful, new memory support residence that offers specialized care and programming at The Shores at Wesley Manor. For information, contact them at 609-399-8505.
