What People Are Saying

Without a miracle medication, it is important to acknowledge that the treatment for cognitive loss is still relationship centered care and keeping the person with dementia active and engaged in life. I like to say that the brain loves company, a concept that Brookdale National Group Respite Programs (BNGRP) celebrate and embrace.

What People Are Saying

The staff at Encore! have given my friend with dementia a focus and purpose. She had been isolated, depressed and sliding more quickly into dementia symptoms. She adores ‘the music workshop’ and looks forward to it.

What People Are Saying

What a needed program! When I pick my husband up after each session, there is always a slight ‘upgrade’ in his physical and mental abilities. The ‘brain gym’ of exercise, music, art, and fellowship is really the best medicine for him and also for me! Thank you for Encore.

Arts & Minds Memory Wellness Program

If you know someone who is worried about or struggling with memory loss Encore!’s Arts and Minds can help. The weekly Brookdale Model program utilizes creative arts as tools for strengthening and maintaining cognitive functioning, optimizing abilities and reducing stress.

Involvement in music and arts offers opportunities to focus on creative experiences that stimulate greater parts of the brain, increasing the likelihood of success. Participants can expect to sing, share memories, drum, write songs, read, compose poems, exercise, improvise, move, tell stories, draw, learn to relax and engage in other memory enhancement experiences. Fun, creative, social fitness for the brain.

“At present, there is a gap in supportive services available for people recently diagnosed with early memory loss. This engaging, educational service model allows adults to be productive, involved members of the community and participate in programming that enhances independence.” - Brookdale Foundation.

Thursday from 10 am to 2 pm. Light lunch. Reasonable fee.
