People with dementia account for 52 percent of all residents living in residential aged care facilities. Dementia can happen to anybody, but it is more common after the age of 65.
At Moyola Lodge in Tatura, the management team are committed to promoting dementia awareness and education for staff, residents, families and community members and recently celebrated Dementia Awareness week.
Moyola Lodge is a 43-bed aged care facility with Margaret Love, a specialised 12-bed dementia wing aimed at supporting residents to live a high quality life with meaning, purpose and value.
Nobody chooses to have dementia, yet the things we can change is how we respond to those living with dementia. Dementia doesn’t discriminate, do you?
Moyola Lodge delivers a high standard of care to all residents and has a fantastic lifestyle program run by enthusiastic coordinators. Activities are suited to residents’ interests and needs and include arts and crafts, bus outings, walking groups, men’s shed and much more.
