What is
personalized Memory Care? by David Krukiel
Built on Experience The founders of Iris Memory Care themselves have struggled with the emotions of placing loved ones in memory care. After realizing that many communities are institutional and lacking in quality, they set out to create a homelike memory care model based on Compassion, Dignity, and Comfort. Iris is excited to introduce this leadingedge approach to Oklahoma with expertly designed communities, exemplary activities, and specially trained staff to address the unique needs of their residents.
Dignity by Design Walking into Iris is like walking into a beautiful single-family home. With an elegant great room adjoining an open-concept kitchen and dining area, residents have the opportunity to interact with cooks as meals are prepared, share stories at the dinner table, or relax in a spacious setting. The kitchen is traditionally known as the heart of the home, and at Iris Memory Care it serves as the heart of their community!
Comfort and Security
Compassionate Care Compassion is the guiding principle that helps Iris enrich their residents’ quality of life. For those with memory loss, deeply ingrained reflections of yesteryear serve as reminders of the people, places and events that have shaped one’s life. Iris works with families to collect extensive resident profiles, allowing them to recognize and relate to past events your loved one may visit throughout the day. Wherever the journey of the mind may lead, Iris will be there to join and support them.
Grand Opening Specials!
At Iris, comfort and security are paramount. Highend granite counters and tiled bathrooms provide beauty and durability — while hypoallergenic hardwood-like floors offer ease of mobility. Even the paint colors are selected for their soothing influence. In addition to the many comforts Iris residents enjoy, their communities are specially equipped for 24/7 access to loved ones while maintaining a safe and secure environment.
