BLOOM by Bethesda

Transitioning to memory care can be one of a family's most difficult decisions. We recognize the challenges families face and strive to provide an environment where seniors not only get the physical daily care they need—but also enjoy the highest possible quality of life with our focus on each person's spiritual, emotional, mental, and social needs.

Seniors in the early stages of Alzheimer’s or dementia may be most comfortable in our assisted living communities, which offer autonomy and independence backed by a strong safety net of care. Personal assistance, such as medication management or arranging medical appointments, can help structure the resident’s day, while vibrant social connections can help stave off memory loss and keep the mind sharp.

As Alzheimer’s progresses, our memory care communities follow our research-based program, BLOOM by Bethesda. As a faith-based organization, we value service above all else. Our compassionate team is here to serve our residents and their families with the transition to an advanced level of care and the 24-hour support following our WellnessPetals.

Support as Needs Progress

With BLOOM, our residents stay active in each Wellness Petal. This can slow the progression of Alzheimer’s or dementia and ease its effects. To help manage anxiety, wandering, and sundowner syndrome, BLOOM trains our Care Partners to personalize their approach to each resident.

Additionally, our communities offer various gardening areas, social settings, physical activities, and spiritual programs designed to care for and support individuals with dementia and their families.

Personal Care Plan

Upon arrival, our Health Services Director meets with new residents and families to develop a personal care plan, which includes an assessment of the resident’s physical and psychological needs. We tailor care to meet each individual’s symptoms, recognizing every individual will be affected differently with memory loss. Our highly trained team—including around-the-clock nurse supervision—tends to all our residents’ needs, from medication management to physical wellness. We update this plan regularly, or as a resident’s health changes. Learn more about our approach to memory care.

Comfortable Living

Our private studios (with bath) are located in our friendly neighborhood setting. We also offer memory care companion suites that create meaningful social connection between residents, and create affordable access to high-quality care. It’s proven that residents with memory loss better maintain cognitive function, language skills, and a healthy routine with consistent social interaction.

Our community features a comfortable lounge, family-style dining and vibrant living spaces. The beautifully landscaped grounds provide a secure outdoor setting with continuous walking paths in a tranquil setting.
