Memory Care

Our Memory Care Center is located within Kingsway Manor Assisted Living where each resident receives individualized and specific care related to their medical, physical, emotional and social well-being. Programs offered are designed to maximize independence and to increase each resident's quality of life. Offering support with family focus and individualized attention assures each resident's dignity in a place where they feel safe and comfortable. Staff are trained to understand the needs of residents with dementia while promoting social interaction.

Kingsway is a proud corporate sponsor of the Alzheimer's Association of NENY. Kingsway staff members participate in Alzheimer's Association fundraising events such as the Capital Region Walk to End Alzheimer's, Reason to Hope Gala, and the Capital Region Caregivers' Conference each year. In addition, to enhance the lives of individuals with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, Kingsway hosts an Alzheimer's Association's Caregiver Support Group meeting. This monthly meeting is designed to provide emotional, educational and social support for caregivers through regularly scheduled meetings. These meetings can help participants develop methods and skills to assist them with positive outcomes. The group encourages caregivers to maintain their own personal, physical and emotional health, as well as optimally care for the person with dementia. This support group meeting is held on the 3rd Tuesday of the month from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the lobby conference room at Kingsway Manor Assisted Living.
