AegisLiving is a Leading Caretaker for Those Struggling With the Disease

REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- The statistics are staggering when considering what an impact Alzheimer's disease has on many American lives. Already nearly five million people in this country alone have been diagnosed with the disease, and the number is expected to triple by mid-century. Fortunately for many families, research, care and treatments are moving into new horizons. Today there is more information and support, providing better understanding of the disease and those it afflicts than ever before. In particular, an area that is dramatically changing is that of assisted living programs designed specifically for those with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

AegisLiving, a national leader in retirement, assisted living and memory care communities, is just one such example of a company that is changing the way those afflicted with the disease are cared for and supported.

"We are constantly seeking new and better ways to make life better for our residents who have Alzheimer's disease. We edge closer to this accomplishment everyday by being more creative, compassionate and flexible, giving us the ability to move beyond traditional care and find breakthrough treatments," said Dwayne Clark, Chairman and CEO of AegisLiving. "Everyone at Aegis has special training in dementia and age sensitivity, understanding it is best to live in the resident's moment. While there is no cure, significant strides have been made to better understand the disease and identify new programs and care options that make a real difference."

To deal with Alzheimer's, AegisLiving has developed innovative communities designed specifically for people with memory loss. In Life's Neighborhood(TM), AegisLiving offers an innovative program that is nationally recognized for its ability to enhance the quality of life and increase enjoyment for residents dealing with memory los
