Helping residents with Alzheimer’s or other age-related dementia.
Somerby of Mobile believes the best way to help a loved one with memory loss is, above all, to be a friend. A friend is someone who knows everything about us — what we were like when we were younger, and what’s brought us to where we are today. We create this person-centered culture by first building relationships that respect one's identity, history and personal preferences, and then using this insight to shape an individual care plan. It’s based on the nationally recognized Best FriendsTM Approach to Alzheimer’s care, and ensures that your loved one feels safe, secure and valued. At Somerby, we know what it takes to keep the Spark burning brightly.
Continuing care at Somerby can also include assisted living and therapy services.
