• With accommodations for only 25 individuals, Faith Place offers an intimate atmosphere.
• A specially trained dementia unit coordinator ensures that meaningful activities are offered that provide residents with a chance to feel useful and successful.
• Normalization tasks such as the Looking Good Group, where women apply make-up and jewelry and men gather to shave are emphasized.
