The Aspenwood Company Launches Research-Based SOAR Memory Care Program
The Aspenwood Company proudly announces the launch of its memory care program, SOAR. SOAR aims to transform the lives of residents and their families through a highly personalized and research-backed approach designed to provide purpose, joy, and hope for individuals living with memory loss.
"SOAR is rooted in the knowledge that individuals living with memory loss still desire days filled with dignity, purpose, and hope," said Heather Tussing, President of The Aspenwood Company. "Our program is built upon the belief that every memory holds immeasurable value, and our mission is to create an environment where memories are celebrated, and new moments of connection are forged."
Recognizing the inherent value of every individual, SOAR focuses on tailoring experiences and support to meet each resident's unique needs and preferences. Through an array of signature programs supported by research, residents will be immersed in a holistic and engaging environment that encourages positivity, vitality, and personal growth. Each aspect of SOAR – atmosphere, dining, programming, and more – is aimed at setting each resident up for success.
SOAR’s signature programs encompass a wide range of enriching activities, including Positive Affirmations, Get Energized (exercise routines), Aspenwood University (lifelong learning), In-the-Moment engagements, access to Purpose Points (interactive life-skill stations), soothing Unwind & Relax opportunities, attractive philanthropic projects, and much more. Each component has been carefully crafted to promote mental stimulation, emotional well-being, and a sense of fulfillment.
Thanks to our relationship with Rice University's prestigious Neuroscience of Memory, Mood, and Aging Lab, Aspenwood keeps its finger on the pulse of innovation in research and advancements in treating memory loss. The insights gained from Rice enable SOAR to evolve and refine its approach continually, delivering its residents the highest standards of care.
"We are thrilled to have a relationship so close to home with Rice University's Neuroscience of Memory, Mood, and Aging Lab," added Gwen Wilburn, SVP Clinical Operations. "This empowers us to provide cutting-edge solutions and interventions, creating a truly exceptional memory care experience."
The Aspenwood Company's commitment to excellence extends beyond the launch of SOAR. Specially trained and certified associates will provide round-the-clock care and support, fostering an environment of compassion, dignity, and respect. Every team member is dedicated to enhancing residents’ lives, nurturing their strengths, and celebrating their unique journeys.
