Memory care is a specialized form of residential care tailored to meet the needs of residents with memory loss and neurocognitive diseases, including 24-hour supervision and assistance with daily living activities specifically designed for those with memory impairments. The primary goal of Atria Stamford’s memory care neighborhood is to provide a safe, structured environment that minimizes stress and confusion for residents. We provide 24-hour supervised care in a secure setting that allows residents to live a full life.

The primary differences between assisted living and memory care communities are the level of care and security of the environment. Assisted living, while also providing personal care and support, caters to a broader range of seniors who require less intensive support. Memory care neighborhoods often have enhanced security features to prevent wandering, a common behavior for those experiencing cognitive decline.

Atria Stamford offers both assisted living and memory care, which can help ease the transition when a resident requires additional support.

The cost of memory care varies based on factors like amenities, apartment type and location.

In Connecticut, the average cost of memory care is roughly $7,500 per month, while families in Stamford can expect to pay $7,840 per month.
