Every resident at Act of Hope has a care plan built around their routines, preferences and health needs. Our caregivers know each resident by name, and the same familiar faces support them day after day.

- Personal assistance with daily tasks — bathing, dressing, grooming and medication support, delivered with respect.

Signs It May Be Time for Memory Care
If you’re noticing changes in a parent or loved one, you’re not alone. Many families wonder when it’s the right time to move to memory care. Here are the signs we hear about most often.
- Wandering or getting lost — leaving the house and not being able to find the way back.
- Difficulty with daily tasks — bathing, dressing, grooming or managing medications becoming unsafe alone.
- Increased confusion or personality changes — agitation, suspicion or withdrawal that is hard to manage at home.
- Caregiver burnout — the person providing care is exhausted, and the strain is affecting their own health.
- Isolation or safety concerns — your loved one is spending more time alone, or home alone is no longer safe.
If any of these sound familiar, we’re happy to meet with you and help you assess the situation — without pressure.

Questions Families Ask About Memory Care
Choosing memory care for a parent is a big decision. Here are the questions families ask us most often.
How is an adult family home different from a memory care facility?
An adult family home cares for a small number of residents — typically up to six — in a real home with a consistent team. A memory care facility is a much larger setting with more residents and more staff turnover. For someone with dementia, the familiar faces and home-like routine of an adult family home can be far more calming.
Do you provide 24/7 supervision for residents with dementia?
Yes. Our memory care includes 24/7 compassionate supervision, so help is always close by — including overnight. This is a core part of keeping residents safe and comfortable.
How do I know when it’s time for memory care?
Signs include wandering or getting lost, difficulty with daily tasks, increased confusion or personality changes, caregiver burnout, and safety concerns at home. If any of these sound familiar, we’re happy to meet with you and help you assess the situation without pressure.
Can families stay involved in their loved one’s care?
Absolutely. We keep families informed and involved in care decisions, and we encourage visits. You’ll know your loved one is safe, comfortable and cared for.
What makes an adult family home a good fit for Alzheimer’s care?
A smaller, home-like setting with a consistent, familiar care team reduces anxiety and helps residents feel secure. Structured daily routines and respectful, personalized assistance are proven to protect dignity and maintain independence for as long as possible.
