Village at Willow Crossings residents benefit from specially trained, 24/7 caregivers overseen by an experienced and tenured leadership team known for their high levels of communication and resident-first approach. Also, committed staff lead creative programs throughout each day to give residents a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Our Mind & Memory Care offers care and experiences for those with Alzheimer’s and dementia that’s continually recognized as being among the best. The foundation of our culture of caring is our associates who provide personalized, needs-based care that supports individual abilities with great insight, knowledge and skill. From the care to the programs to our unique neighborhood design, every aspect of our program puts their needs first.

Care Types

Mind & Memory Care Levels

  • Our Mind & Memory Plan is for residents whose care needs consist primarily of cueing and reminders. Residents are appropriate for our Mind & Memory Care Plan if they generally exhibit mild cognitive impairment and no or limited behaviors such as aggression or resistance to care.
  • Our Mind & Memory I Plan is for residents whose care needs consist primarily of a minimal level of physical assistance with activities of daily living, and minimal levels of cognitive impairment.
  • Our Mind & Memory II Plan is for residents whose care needs require a moderate amount of physical assistance with several activities of daily living, and who generally exhibit moderate cognitive impairment.
  • Our Mind & Memory III Plan is for residents whose care needs require a substantial amount of physical assistance with several activities of daily living, and who generally exhibit severe cognitive impairment and/or associated behaviors.
  • Our Mind & Memory IV Plan is for residents who have extensive needs, for example: a need for total care with one or more activities of daily living, or a substantial amount of assistance is warranted on a daily basis.
  • Our Mind & Memory V Plan is for residents who need total assistance with all aspects of care, as well as usage of a mechanical or electrical lift for transfers on an ongoing basis. They may also require extensive emotional/behavioral support.

Personalized, needs-based care to support individual abilities


We remain at the forefront by really knowing our residents, creating and regularly modifying personal care plans and offering on-site supportive services. Our residents continue doing the daily living activities they can with only the support they need from us to remain as independent as possible. In addition, with other care levels on-property, couples with different care needs can stay together.

Our program also includes many signature programs and socialization that cater to their individual interests and overall health and wellness. Intergenerational programs, holiday celebrations, dinners under the stars and tea parties are just some of the many ways we engage our residents each day.
