Third-party senior living operator and developer Certus Living is rolling out a new dementia care program at a large well-known life plan community in Dallas in an effort to provide more of a “five-star feel” to residents living there.
The operator’s newly launched Vitalize program brings together a range research-based lifestyle and programming into a cohesive memory car program.
The company is rolling out its program at the Edgemere community in Dallas, which it began managing last August. The community has endured challenges in the last two years including Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings that stemmed from financial strain caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Certus’ turnaround efforts are supported by the rollout of Vitalize, which brings together memory care services, unit and common area renovations and new long-term care services for high-acuity residents.
