Clara’s Garden Memory Care Activities
Clara’s Garden fosters a sense of belonging, purpose, and safety. Our caring staff promotes well-being and positivity every day.
Daily activities provide sensory and cognitive engagement opportunities, such as music, movement, art, fresh flower arranging, discussion groups, and creative activities. Personalized interests, abilities, and life stories are integrated into our calendar of activities, as well as one-on-one interactions. Clara’s Garden is specifically designed to cultivate socialization, outdoor happenings, dining experiences, being in community with others, and making friends.
