While we pride ourselves on offering award-winning care for residents at each of our Runk & Pratt locations, we are especially proud of our state-of-the-art memory support communities. With a growing number of seniors requiring memory care, we’ve ensured each of our locations devoted to memory care feature the most modern advancements to provide a safe, stimulating, and exciting living experience.

Our Multi-sensory Rooms are cutting edge environments that surround the resident with soothing, highly engaging stimuli that produce a calming effect on those living with Alzheimer’s or dementia. Studies show that the mood shift caused by this environment increases self-esteem and confidence, reduces inhibitions and aggressive behavior, and improves overall mood. It even reduces the risk of self-injury by 75%

Our Multi-sensory rooms engage our seniors in their senses of sight, sound, smell and touch beyond their day-to-day experiences. These rooms are one of the many ways Runk & Pratt goes above and beyond to provide memory support that far exceeds that of the average facility.
