Joan Bleifuhs lives with Alzheimer's. Her daughters found the perfect memory care setting where Joan is loved and treated with dignity.
Joan Bleifuhs' care at one Presbyterian Homes & Services (PHS) senior living community in suburban Minneapolis is reflective of how those living with dementia are treated across PHS communities. PHS' approach to care of those living with cognitive decline ensures that they receive the care, connections and choices they need to participate in what matters most to them. The organization's Dementia Orientation Values Education Program (DOVE) program seeks to: (1) Affirm those living with dementia as whole individuals; (2) Honor those living with dementia by celebrating their strengths and accomplishments; (3) Uphold the dignity, self-esteem and independence of those living with dementia through person-centered care; and, (4) Encourage compassion, flexibility, warmth and creativity within Presbyterian Homes & Services care teams.
