FAQs

1How does memory care differ from assisted living?
Patients who are cognitively challenged, whether from Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, require more attention than residents in catered living. Vista Memory Support helps build confidence by promoting choice and celebrating accomplishments through familiar schedules and surroundings.
2What is the difference between Alzheimer’s disease and dementia?
Dementia refers to the loss of cognitive functions (thinking, reasoning, the ability to remember) that are severe enough to interfere with a person’s daily functioning. This group of symptoms is not a disease per se, but may accompany certain diseases or conditions. Dementia is irreversible when caused by disease or certain injuries.

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive, degenerative disease of the brain, characterized by loss of function and death of nerve cells in several brain areas, leading to loss of recent memories and new learning first, and eventually old memories, too.
