Early intervention can significantly impact a senior’s quality of life. At MorningStar at Beaverton in Oregon, we understand families' challenges when their loved ones are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or dementia. If you are concerned that your parent or loved one may be in need of memory care, be mindful of these symptoms of dementia in seniors. MorningStar’s memory care communities utilize the latest technology and research in memory care to create an engaging and stimulating environment and lifestyle for residents.
One of the most common early signs of dementia is forgetfulness. Seniors may have difficulty remembering important dates, recent events, conversations, or appointments. They may frequently misplace items such as their car keys or telephone or struggle to recall semi-familiar names or faces. As a caregiver or adult child to a senior, tracking these instances of memory loss can help identify memory loss patterns and provide valuable information to healthcare professionals for accurate diagnosis and personalized care planning. While we all have our forgetful moments that increase with age, another early symptom of dementia is difficulty with communication or a change in normal behavior surrounding communication. If you are having a conversation with a senior that you talk with regularly and are finding that they are struggling more and more to find the right words or are having difficulty following or participating in conversations, this could be a sign of early dementia. Tracking these changes in communication patterns can assist in identifying the progression of dementia and facilitating appropriate interventions, including speech therapy and communication techniques. Families can rest assured knowing their loved ones are receiving the very best modern and holistic memory care practices for memory care in Beaverton. Offering a range of activities and programs, our assisted living is designed to promote social engagement, cognitive stimulation, and physical exercise. These activities not only enhance residents' quality of life, but they can also help slow the progression of dementia.

Vitamin B12 plays a crucial role in maintaining proper brain function and cognitive health. This is why it is important to make sure seniors in memory care are receiving adequate nutrition that encourages proper B12 consumption. A B12 deficiency is a common concern among seniors, especially those with memory care needs. This is why MorningStar Senior Living offers the best dining experience for seniors in memory care in Arvada, Co with executive chefs that use brainwise foods and fresh ingredients year-round.
Seniors are more susceptible to B12 deficiency due to age-related changes in the body's ability to absorb and utilize this vitamin. Factors such as reduced stomach acid production, gastrointestinal disorders, or certain medications can further compromise B12 absorption, putting seniors at a higher risk. This vitamin plays a key role in the production of myelin, a substance that protects nerve cells and facilitates efficient communication within the brain. Insufficient B12 levels can lead to impaired nerve function, affecting memory, attention, and overall cognitive performance. Seniors with memory care needs should undergo a comprehensive nutritional assessment to identify any deficiencies, including B12. This assessment can help determine if dietary changes or supplementation is necessary to meet the individual's nutritional requirements. At MorningStar, our executive chefs encourage a diet rich in foods containing vitamin B12, such as lean meats, fish, dairy products, eggs, and fortified cereals. For individuals with dietary restrictions or limitations, alternative sources of B12, such as supplements or B12 injections, may be recommended. Our trained Executive Chefs design seasonal menus that feature the freshest ingredients from high-quality producers, locally sourced when possible (sometimes from our own resident gardens). These ingredients help to build our BrainWise program. BrainWise is as much a lifestyle as it is a program at MorningStar by which we prioritize the use of ingredients known to support brain health by their high concentrations of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds. The charge of MorningStar’s culinary team is not just to create flavors to delight the eye and palate but to leverage the phenomenal benefits of these aptly named “SuperFoods,” items like acai berries, Omega 3 fats, dark chocolate, and dark greens.
