The Shores Memory Care at Newport Center

Family members can find solace in knowing that their loved ones are receiving the specialized care they require while having access to resources and support to help them cope with the emotional and practical challenges of supporting someone with memory impairment.

Vivante Newport Beach supports family relationships by providing various engaging, entertaining activities that seniors can do with family members and loved ones. These activities and therapies are tailored to the senior’s cognition level, personality, and interests to create a meaningful, fortifying experience for all. Family members can also experience the luxurious amenities of The Shores alongside loved ones and enjoy the beautiful coastal location while bonding with family.

In memory care, the foremost emphasis is tailoring each senior’s experience to their needs, preferences, and capabilities. This may include allowing residents to choose their daily activities or food selections. For instance, if a resident with dementia prefers a childhood nickname and enjoys painting, caregivers respectfully address them by that nickname and encourage regular painting sessions as a means of self-expression.

These compassionate individuals receive specialized training in dementia care, equipping them with the insight to understand the distinctive needs of each resident. Their expertise empowers them to provide personalized care that honors the dignity and uniqueness of every resident while ensuring their safety and well-being.
