“I could not be happier with Kingsbury. I appreciate the staff and the atmosphere is fun and the building is such a clean facility! I feel comfortable because I know my mom is well taken care of. It gives me a calm feeling. The activities are beyond anything I could ever wish for my mom. My prayer has always been for her to enjoy her life, and she is!”

Environment
Varietas® relies on the things we learn about your loved one to comfort and connect with them in a warm and nurturing environment. Our memory care communities are thoughtfully designed with safety and convenience in mind.
You may see things like:
- secure, enclosed courtyards and gardens
- single floor layouts with familiar floorplans
- hydration stations with colored and lightly flavored water to encourage hydration and stimulate appetite
- personalized memory boxes and bold font name plates help residents navigate back and forth to their apartment
All of these elements work together to help residents feel safe and comfortable.
Engagement
Studies show socialization has a positive impact on seniors and can reduce, even prevent the signs of depression. Each resident’s daily routine consists of their own combination of therapeutic and positive stimulation, including expressive arts, exercise, nutrition, reminiscing, cognitive activities, and social engagement with peers, staff, and families.
Education
Varietas® employees and managers receive Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) training, which is the highest standard in Alzheimer’s and Dementia education.
Varietas® Employees Also Receive:
- Varietas® Memory Care Training
- Memory Care Sensitivity Training
- Evidence-based training that stimulates changes associated with cognitive decline
