At Pegasus, the successful Connections Memory Care program was formed by Dr. Sandra Petersen, an expert in memory care, assisted living, and neuroplasticity.<\/p><p>Dr. Petersen personally experienced a stroke a number of years ago which damaged the neuroplastic network of her brain, leading to problems with speech and walking. A brain health specialist guided her recovery as she built new neural pathways by learning a new language and engaging in certain physical activities.<\/p><figure id=\"attachment_2512\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2512\" style=\"width: 1199px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"blog-80 wp-image-2512 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/59ef588d374b6.imagewide2.jpg\" alt=\"Pegasus Senior Living | Dr. Sandra Petersen\" width=\"1199\" height=\"714\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2512\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Using these personal experiences along with her vast medical research and expertise, Dr. Petersen has helped to build a memory care program at Pegasus that focuses on unique and proven methods to build seniors&#8217; cognitive function.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><blockquote><p>By providing 24-hour neuroplasticity programming along with a combination of therapy and engaging activities, Pegasus&#8217; Connections Memory Care program creates a supportive space for individuals living with dementia and their families.<\/p><\/blockquote><h3><b>How are memory care programs beneficial to seniors with Alzheimer&#8217;s or other forms of dementia?<\/b><\/h3><p>At Pegasus&#8217; Connections Memory Care program, evidence-based techniques are used with the goal of providing greater quality of life for memory care residents. Utilizing enrichment activities such as art, music, and movement helps engage seniors&#8217; senses and form those neurological connections that are so important for cognitive therapy.<\/p><p>Seniors in need of memory care benefit from a mixture of routine and gently challenging activities. The low resident-to-associate ratio at Pegasus allows Connections Memory Care professionals to get to know residents on a personal level. Team members are specially trained to foster relationships with family and third-party partners to alleviate any anxiety or unease seniors may feel in their day-to-day activities.<\/p><h3><b>How do I know if my loved one needs memory care services?<\/b><\/h3><p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alz.org\/alzheimers-dementia\/10_signs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alzheimer&#8217;s Association<\/a>, some early signs and symptoms of dementia are:<\/p><table style=\"table-layout: fixed;\"><tbody><tr><td>Memory loss that disrupts daily life<\/td><td>New problems with speaking or writing<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Challenges in planning or solving problems<\/td><td>Misplacing things<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Difficulty completing familiar tasks<\/td><td>Decreased judgement<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Confusion with time or place<\/td><td>Withdrawal from social activities<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Trouble understanding images<\/td><td>Changes in mood or personality<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p>Memory problems can be scary for the individual and their family members, but early diagnosis is key to delaying the progression of the disease.
