MIND & MEMORY CARE

Residents at The Branches of Marlboro receive person-centered support around-the-clock in a beautiful new community setting overseen by a nurse and other individuals with decades of experience. In addition to care by associates committed to enhancing the aging experience, our memory care residents enjoy cognitively stimulating programs in open-concept spaces.

Our Mind & Memory Care offers care and experiences for those with Alzheimer’s and dementia that’s continually recognized as being among the best. Our values-based culture hires our associates for their compassion and integrity, and they receive superior training in order to personalized, needs-based care that supports individual abilities.

How is Mind & Memory Care Different?


All the benefits of Benchmark Assisted Living with a specialized program and
environment for the unique needs of those with memory impairment.

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 make it possible for our residents to age well with independence using personalized care plans designed around their current abilities. For those who need additional support now or may in the future, we also offer advanced care capabilities unique to our community including specialized lifts, two-person assists and feeding assistance.

Cognitive stimulation that supports short-term and long-term memory and makes it possible for our residents to enjoy each new day is the goal of our specialized Mind & Memory Care programming. Our location makes it possible for our residents to take advantage of intergenerational programs with surrounding schools. They also enjoy activities like ballroom dancing, opportunities to give back, live entertainment experiences and pet therapy.
