Memory Care Services: How We Support Seniors with Dementia

At Windsor Place Retirement of Wilmington, we understand that caring for a loved one with dementia can be one of life’s most emotional and overwhelming experiences. Families face many challenges—from safety concerns to emotional changes—and finding the right support is crucial. That’s where our specialized Memory Care services step in. Our community is dedicated to creating a secure, enriching, and compassionate environment where seniors with dementia can thrive with dignity.

What Is Memory Care?

Memory Care is a specialized type of senior living designed to meet the unique needs of individuals experiencing memory loss due to Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. At Windsor Place Retirement, our Memory Care program is more than just assistance—it’s about understanding, patience, and respect.

Our experienced caregivers receive ongoing dementia-specific training, allowing them to provide personalized support that addresses both the physical and emotional needs of each resident. Whether your loved one is in the early stages of memory loss or requires more advanced care, our team is equipped to help.

A Secure and Comfortable Environment

Safety and structure are key in supporting those with memory challenges. Our secure Memory Care neighborhood features controlled entrances and exits, 24/7 staff supervision, and a thoughtfully designed layout to reduce confusion and encourage independence.

The setting at Windsor Place Retirement is warm and homelike, helping residents feel at ease. Private and semi-private rooms are available, all designed to offer comfort while minimizing disorientation.

Personalized Daily Routines

Familiar routines offer stability and reduce anxiety for those living with dementia. At Windsor Place, we tailor daily activities around each resident’s preferences and abilities. From structured exercise classes to music therapy and memory games, our programs are designed to engage the mind and body while fostering connection.

Every detail of our day-to-day life—from mealtime routines to recreational therapy—is planned with the intention of promoting independence and enhancing cognitive function.

Compassionate, Professional Staff

The heart of our Memory Care program is our dedicated caregiving team. Our staff members are not only trained in dementia care techniques but also in communication skills that help build trust and comfort. We focus on understanding the individual behind the diagnosis—learning their life story, values, and preferences—so we can deliver care that truly makes a difference.

We also work closely with families to keep them informed, involved, and supported throughout the care journey.

Family Support and Peace of Mind

We know that dementia doesn’t just affect the individual—it impacts the entire family. That’s why we provide resources, guidance, and emotional support for caregivers and loved ones. Whether it’s through regular family meetings, education sessions, or simply being available to answer questions, we’re here for you every step of the way.
