Everbrook communities offer residents with early or milder dementia an opportunity to remain in traditional assisted living, and in some cases independent living, for longer. Because Everbrook Senior Living leadership encourages its staff to do more to preserve residents independence for longer, we brainstormed a way to leverage technology – utilizing a wireless device called Wander Guard – to prevent certain residents from unsafely wandering off, and we customized our signature activities program Wellness 4 Later Life^TM to be more suitable to persons with milder dementia so residents can live and thrive outside of the EGIS secured neighborhood.

We now have a solution in Crossroads that gives residents the freedom to safely do the things they want, and a structured program that prevents self-isolating behavior while ensuring that residents with milder dementia can socialize with similarly situated residents who all work together to bring purpose to living.

Egis Memory Support Neighborhood offers assistance with daily living activities as described in detail in the assisted living insert, plus enhanced support to residents as they perform daily living activities. Egis is a secured area accessed only through controlled doors. Residents are offered a studio apartment with private bath, separate common area activity, dining space, and secured outdoor recreational spaces.

In the EGIS, our cutting-edge enrichment program embodies and mixes the philosophies of Habilitation Therapy, Errorless Learning, and Montessori-based learning methods.

A Certified Dementia Care Practitioner leads a professional staff who are well-trained to help residents live and thrive with memory impairment. Our unique Enrichment Program introduces stage-appropriate activities matched to remaining functional and cognitive abilities, an enriched social environment, and effective methods of communication, the goal being, to evoke and sustain in residents a positive emotion throughout a day. Care is offered at an all-inclusive fee structure, except for levels of service which requires two-person care or around-the-clock supervision, which will result in additional costs.
