Kelly Stagg, director of Stone Creek Memory Care, joins Kelli and Sue to explain how memory care works and how staff create a true sense of home for people with dementia. This is a personal connection for Kelli, whose mother is a resident of Stone Creek. And for Sue, it's about how to deal with what she, at 78, fears the most.
The discussion covers recognizing warning signs, when to consider residential care, managing sundowning, the power of music and activities, supporting families, end-of-life care, and resources like the Alzheimer’s Association.
Plus Neighborhood Notes about upcoming travels to Alaska and New Orleans, a Kit Report from the Mailbag, and non-alcoholic (but still potent) Drinks of the Day—all this and more on the new episode.
Cheers, y'all!
