Our Mission:
To help people understand memory and cognitive changes and learn skills to live everyday at their best ability.
We want to decrease frustration and increase success.
Our in-home Occupational Therapy program:
- Evaluates a person's cognition and helps identify any deficits that affect daily life
- Educates on the reasons for these changes and why tasks are more challenging
- Provides recommendations for the most appropriate level of support
- Instructs on techniques for communication and activity set up to keep people as independent as possible
- Communicates with other health care professionals involved in care as indicated
Have you noticed any of these changes with your loved one?

Who are "Care Partners"?
- Memory Partners uses the term Care Partner more often than Care Giver because of our emphasis on an interdependent relationship that emphasizes the strengths and gifts of each person
- When two people partner in care, they can each grow as individuals and therefore each feel uniquely useful and helpful - even if one has a diagnosis of a progressive cognitive condition.
Care Partners - have you wondered:
- Am I communicating with my loved one in the most effective way?
- Am I using the most appropriate words and phrasing?
- Is my loved one in the safest environment?
- Am I doing too much or too little for my loved one?
- Is there more support out there to help me?
We Can Help.
