In 1995, we started Cedar Creek because we saw a big gap in assisted living choices for people with dementia. We strongly believe people with memory loss feel safer and more secure in small homes like the ones they've lived in all their lives. Our residents live their lives with a sense of normalcy and a lot of joy. We believe true dementia care is about an intimate relationship with our residents and a strong partnership with our families. We believe in meeting our residents where they are. This means understanding who they are now and who they were before the disease. With an appreciation for their uniqueness, we craft our program to their needs and abilities. Maintaining a sense of routine and familiarity is at the heart of our program. This might mean supervised cooking or daily walks. We keep our residents involved and contributing--sweeping the patio, setting the table--encouraging a sense of purpose and supporting them along the way. We're not about bureaucracy, we're about finding solutions and making life better for people who have little control over their minds and fewer choices about their lives than any of us would want.
We decided to have small homes so that our programs could be very individualized. We just don't believe you can provide good dementia care in a large anonymous situation where a resident sees many new faces of staff and residents every day. Being small gives us great opportunity: It's our goal to know everything we can about a resident, what scares them, what makes them happy, what they have spent the last 75 years doing. We know that the person we see before us does not always convey the richness of their life. To truly care for someone, we want to know their story and how to bring them the highest quality of life. The world gets pretty small when someone has dementia--we want to make that world a happy place because each and every resident deserves as much joy in their lives as possible.
