Chartwell Scarlett Height’s Memory Living Neighbourhood is a supportive and independent environment for seniors living with dementia, located on a dedicated floor of our retirement residence. Our unique, person-centred approach to memory care means our trained and caring staff seek to establish strong social connections with residents in order to foster trust and familiarity. We also partner with families to learn each person’s life history—all to better understand their story and form meaningful relationships. To better support the families of our residents, we have a dedicated Social Worker on-site to provide orientation, facilitate family conferences and deliver counseling services if desired. Family members are also encouraged to drop by any time to speak with our Memory Living Manager.
