Memory Care

Choosing memory care for a parent is one of the hardest decisions a family makes. At Aspen Ridge, Memory Care (Continuing Care Type B Secure) offers a safe, welcoming home for those living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other cognitive conditions. Through Spark, Optima Living’s dedicated memory care program, every day is shaped around the person your parent has always been.
