Treating Dementia in Bend

The term "dementia" is becoming more well known throughout the world and gets more and more publicity as we start to see a growing number of people being diagnosed with the condition. There is a sense of isolation with dementia and can be very hard to deal with for our parents as well as the caregivers. As we and our loved ones age, 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. Staying socially active can even be a tool for treating dementia progression.

We're pleased to say that Harmony House of Bend 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.
