Treating Dementia

Living conditions are more crowded than at any time in our evolutionary history, but some of us suffer from more isolation. As we and our loved ones ages, social connectedness becomes even more important—especially for treating dementia.

A growing body of data from the Kungsholmen project has found that a rich social network is an important part of successful aging. And staying socially active can even be a tool for treating dementia progression.

We’re pleased to say that Avamere Rehab of Hillsboro helps those living with dementia and Alzheimer's feel a sense of connectedness and encourages healthy activity. Our "best friends"; approach to dementia care and Alzheimer's care, uses meaningful activity-based programming to enhance the quality of resident's lives. It employs gentle techniques that help redirect and reorient seniors, so they can stay active and involved—as well as safe.
