MemoryCare was established as a community-based, charitable non-profit organization to address the need for excellent dementia care for people with dementia that includes families throughout the process of their care. Now in our 20th year, we are nationally recognized pioneers in dementia care, supporting families since 2000. MemoryCare is an out-patient, consultative program with goal that all impacted by dementia can have the highest possible quality of life. We remain the only program in western North Carolina that integrates family support and education with the medical care of adults with dementia. Dementia is a chronic, progressive illness that currently has no cure or viable treatment. All with the disease will eventually require the help of others who need support and education to manage it well. Utilizing our multidisciplinary, holistic approach, our care teams provide diagnostic work-up, disease management planning,
training and medical assistance to handle challenging behaviors, caregiver training, counseling and support. We help coordinate available community resources, assist low income older adults with applications for medication assistance, and counsel individuals/families about end of life decision making. All families are provided a detailed written care plan that is amended as the illness progresses and have full access to our resource library and staff for educational material. MemoryCare staff is devoted to providing community education on dementia, caregiving, and aging-related health issues. We teach professional health care providers on these topics as well . . In 2019, MemoryCare provided comprehensive services to 1020 patients and 3372 caregivers. One hundred percent of caregivers surveyed expressed satisfaction with MemoryCare's
Program and 100% said they would recommend MemoryCare to others. Families were seen in our Asheville office, rural satellite clinics in Burnsville and Waynesville, and through our home visit program in Buncombe County. Our community education and outreach efforts to students, community members, and healthcare professionals reached 2336 individuals and our family caregiver education program, "Caregiver College," reached 165 individuals in person and 57 through the online professional version. Our MemoryCaregivers Network continued to offer three peer caregiver support groups to all caregivers of a loved one with dementia in the community and our electronic newsletter was sent to over 2,700 individuals. We maintain a Resource Library for the public with information about dementia, dementia care, healthy aging, and more.
