For the highest quality memory care in the Suwanee, Georgia area, consider Autumn Leaves® assisted living community. We don’t simply care for people with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia; we nurture them. At Autumn Leaves, we understand that dementia care is not only about caring for the resident, but also about caring for residents’ families, because dementia affects everyone in the family. Autumn Leaves of Sugarloaf is located seven miles from Gwinnett Medical Center Lawrenceville. Visit us today to see the Autumn Leaves difference.
Because we care exclusively for people with dementia, we design our assisted living communities differently. The hallways are wider, with varied cutouts to encourage the residents to continue down the corridor to their rooms. The lighting is brighter and more soothing to reduce the effects of “sundowning”–a phenomenon that occurs when the person with Alzheimer’s becomes anxious as the sun sets. The dining room comes with a large tropical fish tank based on studies that dementia residents have better appetites if they can watch fish swim during mealtimes. These little touches all add up to provide the best possible care for your loved one. By designing a superior assisted living environment, we believe we can deliver superior memory care.
Dementia Care that Goes the Extra Mile
All of our nursing staff has been specifically trained to deliver the best in dementia care. But beyond this, everyone in the entire company has received basic training in how to best relate to those with dementia issues. We surround your loved one with a thoroughly trained and compassionate staff to consistently deliver both the heart and science of dementia care.
