Memory Care

at Sydney Creek

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s and related dementias is emotionally challenging—as is the decision to move them to a Memory Care community.

Health, safety, and quality of life were top priorities as we designed a unique environment that encourages residents to interact with their community, enjoy favorite pastimes, and stay connected with the world.

The Village at Sydney Creek is here to assist you with this transition. We take care of our residents and their families, by providing knowledgeable staff and the necessary resources to make this step as smooth as possible—mentally, emotionally and logistically.
