Helping those with memory loss

At Frey Village we know that during the stages of aging, some people are affected by memory-related conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease. Memory-related conditions often require special care and programming offered in a secure setting. The Phoenix Unit offers just that. Focused on providing as much of a “rebirth” as possible, the Phoenix Unit encourages residents to lead enjoyable and productive lives through structured activities designed to enhance memory and meet individual needs.

Specialized accommodations

The Phoenix Unit provides care in a safe, secure setting. Each resident room has a “memory box” on the wall outside its entrance. Families are encouraged to place items familiar to the resident to enhance recollection and infuse feelings of home.

Residents receive three delicious meals daily, served in a large day room. The day room also serves as a neighborhood center, where residents enjoy individualized activities designed to keep them active. And for relaxation, residents can sit back in one of the day room’s easy gliders and watch movies on the big-screen television. For outdoor enjoyment, French doors located in the day room provide access to a secure, outdoor courtyard, where residents enjoy numerous outdoor amenities.

Social opportunities

In addition to activities offered by village staff, residents of the Phoenix Unit have an abundance of unique social opportunities. From prom night to birthday parties and outings to places such as ZooAmerica, Lake Tobias Wildlife Refuge, and aquariums, residents enjoy a range of stimulating activities.

A commitment to care

To minimize confusion for our residents, highly trained, courteous professionals consistently staff the Phoenix Unit. Offering specialized attention, staff members focus on offering residents’ individualized care. With this peace of mind, residents’ families come to understand their loved ones are part of our family, too.
