Transitioning to 24-Hour Memory Care Services

For many families who have a loved one with dementia, Alzheimer's, or similar cognitive conditions, the first solution is to live with them. Families can provide care for older people with dementia for some time, but as their condition advances, the emotional, physical, and financial burdens continue to grow.

For many families, there's a turning point where it's time to consider alternatives. 24-hour memory care in Cincinnati can provide the around-the-clock care your loved one needs, within a larger assisted living memory care community dedicated to their happiness.

Don't let yourself become burned out providing memory care on your own. Serene Suites offers superior care while allowing you to go back to your normal life.

Why Professional 24-Hour Memory Care Outperforms Shift-Based Home Care

We understand the desire to keep a loved one close, but home care creates more headaches for you while often providing worse care.

With shift-based home care, you have to coordinate schedules with the agencies. Caregivers often change over time, creating anxiety in the patient. In addition, there's always the chance of shift gaps that you would have to fill yourself.

Serene Suites eliminates the anxiety of around-the-clock home care. With a dedicated, constant team of caregivers in a facility designed specifically for the needs of those with dementia, your loved one can receive a better quality of care and safety.

How Our 24-Hour Memory Care Overcomes Nighttime Wandering and Sundowning

Serene Suites specializes in managing advanced memory loss and the disrupted sleep patterns that often come with dementia. “Sundowning” is far easier to manage when there’s a dedicated full-time staff on-site.

Our awake, alert overnight care partners take the burden of continuous oversight off your shoulders. We also focus on evidence-based techniques of validation and gentle redirection to calm nighttime anxiety or agitation, rather than harsh confrontation or restraint tactics. Our goal is to provide maximum happiness to your loved one while also keeping them safe.

Our Purpose-Built Architecture and Invisible Safety Net

Ensuring your loved one's safety shouldn't require forcing them into a cold, restrictive institutional environment or using physical restraints.

Our memory care community has been designed from the ground up to allow safe wandering and socialization. Your loved one will have a high degree of freedom to move around the facility while still being overseen at all times. Advanced passive monitoring systems maintain their privacy as well, while alerting staff if there's ever a problem.

Our Advantage: On-Site Medical Leadership and 24/7 Nursing

Serene Suites offers 24/7 nursing and an on-site physician providing medical leadership. Unlike many other care settings, you never need to coordinate urgent medical appointments yourself. Medical care is part of the package.

Our medical experts will collaborate proactively on care, looking to prevent problems and adjust care to fit your loved one's changing needs. From adjusting medications to updating their care plan, our community is tailored to each resident's individual situation.

Preserving Dignity Through Custom Care Mapping and Daily Support

Memory care isn’t one-size-fits-all. Every patient is different, so every care plan is different. At Serene Suites, every resident receives a custom care mapping plan, tailored to their specific needs and medical situation.

We offer dignified, hands-on assistance with the essential activities of daily living (ADLs), including baths, dressing, hygiene, and medication management. Our chef-prepared meals are also crafted to meet their evolving dietary needs, while also taking their own tastes and preferences into account.

At every stage, our goal is to maximize your loved one’s care, safety, and happiness.

Cognitive Engagement and Tailored Therapy Programs

Quality of care matters, which is why we've put together a true assisted living memory care community. Every resident has daily access to social activities, allowing them to form meaningful connections that can help slow the progress of their condition. These are combined with skill-building workshops centered on familiar, purposeful tasks that also help them retain their cognitive abilities.

In addition, we proudly offer a range of evidence-based therapeutic programming. This includes the award-winning Opening Minds through Art (OMA) program, as well as custom music therapy.

Cognitive decline cannot currently be reversed, but it can be slowed through compassionate patient-focused care.
