Compassionate Support for Seniors at Every Stage of Memory Loss
Compassionate Support for Seniors at Every Stage of Memory Loss
At Fairmont Senior Living of Westlake, we understand that memory loss doesn’t erase a person’s identity. That’s why our Montessori-based memory care community goes beyond traditional senior dementia care, fostering connection, independence, and daily joy for every resident. Through personalized routines, familiar environments, and purposeful activities, we create a space where residents feel secure, engaged, and valued.
Our approach isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about honoring every story, every moment, and every individual.
Our team follows the Montessori-Inspired Lifestyle®, a proven framework that emphasizes resident strengths, autonomy, and dignity. From structured choices to hands-on tasks, residents are empowered to live with purpose and pride.
Familiarity and structure play a crucial role in reducing stress and confusion for those living with memory loss. Our daily schedules feature gentle transitions, calming environments, and meaningful tasks, helping residents feel safe, understood, and at ease.
Residents participate in multi-sensory, purposeful activities including gardening, music therapy, baking, and art. These experiences aren’t just enjoyable—they help support memory retention, fine motor skills, and emotional well-being.
No two memory journeys are alike. That’s why our care team tailors each resident’s plan based on their life story, preferences, and cognitive needs. From former teachers to veterans to lifelong gardeners, we create enrichment opportunities that resonate deeply.
Families find comfort knowing their loved one is not only safe—but cared for with empathy, skill, and heart.
Our Montessori memory care includes sensory engagement, music and art therapy, daily cognitive activities, and reminiscence therapy, all designed to bring joy, stimulate memory, and support daily function.
Our team is trained in Montessori-based techniques, dementia care best practices, and person-centered communication strategies. Ongoing training ensures we adapt to each resident’s evolving needs with compassion and skill.
We provide guidance from the first conversation to move-in day and beyond. Our team offers emotional support, clear communication, and family engagement opportunities to help you feel confident in your decision.
Through routine wellness checks and close family communication, we adjust care plans as needs change, always focusing on resident safety, comfort, and well-being.
