TOWN SQUARE: SENIOR DAY CARE AT SANDY SPRINGS
As we age, the memories of our youth and young adult years do not grow farther away. In fact, the opposite is true. As we grow older, the memories of our formative years become more vital to who we are.
This important truth is central to the model of senior care we provide at Town Square Sandy Springs. When Town Square learned about the benefits of memory care and reminiscence therapy, we saw an opportunity to provide richer and more meaningful senior care.
Reminiscence therapy was originally developed by George G. Glenner Alzheimer’s Family Centers. At its core is the understanding that as we age, our memories from our formative young adult years are the ones that stay with us the longest — especially for those experiencing Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. When daily life becomes confusing, these memories can become a vital source of happiness and fulfillment. By revisiting them, seniors can reduce anxiety and increase feelings of joy.
At Town Square, we’ve created a comprehensive, immersive environment that takes seniors back to one of the most important times in their lives. Today’s seniors came of age in the 1950s and early 1960s. At Town Square Sandy Springs, they can relive that era, surrounded by cultural benchmarks inside a community of people from the same generation who share similar memories and experiences.
We’ve built a solid foundation of high-quality professional care based on reminiscence and memory therapy. We have a compassionate, well-trained staff backed up by a licensed nurse on-site at all times. This focus on excellence allows us to manage medications, monitor health conditions, and respond quickly in an emergency. It also gives you and your loved ones peace of mind, knowing that a day at Town Square Sandy Springs is therapeutic, engaging, and safe.
A DAY AT TOWN SQUARE SANDY SPRINGS
Town Square Sandy Springs is warm and welcoming. Our immersive 1950s design contains 13 activity centers called “storefronts.” Each storefront provides a therapeutic environment where members can reminisce, engage in stimulating programs, and bond with their peers.
When members first join Town Square, we sit down to get to know them and assess their specific needs. We plan how we can best provide individual care and support.
We then devise a strategy to create the greatest possible benefit for our entire community. Each storefront has a distinct schedule of activities. We organize social groups so that every member can participate in activities best suited to their needs, abilities, and interests.
OUR STOREFRONTS INCLUDE
- A classic diner, where members can have a meal and a conversation
- A game room, where friends can engage in table games, board games, and more
- A health club, with exercise programs for all abilities
- A newsstand, featuring both new and vintage magazines
- A movie theater, screening films from the golden age of Hollywood
- Our classic “Little Blue House” living room
- And so much more
