CARING FOR THOSE THAT CARED FOR US
At Adora, we understand the unique challenges that come with caring for a loved one with dementia. That's why we offer a range of services and amenities to meet the needs of each individual resident. Our trained and caring staff is available 24 hours a day to help with daily activities, medication management and more.
Our community features private rooms, each designed to provide a comfortable and home-like setting. We also offer a variety of activities and programs, including exercise classes, music therapy, and art classes, to help stimulate the mind and promote socialization.
Adora Alzheimer's Residences is more than a place to live, it's a community of compassion and support. We invite you to schedule a tour and see for yourself why our residents and their families consider Adora their home away from home.
