To engage and entertain residents, our featured multisensory rooms and hallways integrate interactive environments where residents can draw shapes, play games, and move objects around just by touching the wall. Multisensory life skill centers allow residents to interact, be stimulated, and recall everyday life experiences.This industry-leading concept provides a calming effect on residents living with Alzheimer’s and is intended to reduce the risk of aggressive behavior by increasing residents’ self-esteem and confidence.
