Memory loss affects more than just memory, it also impacts every aspect of a person’s life, including their independence, sense of self, and daily experiences. For families navigating a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s, dementia, or another cognitive condition, finding the right support is essential, not just in clinical care, but a nurturing environment that promotes dignity and connection.
At Kensington Park, luxury memory care is more than just the beauty of our surroundings or the quality of our accommodations. It’s about the small, consistent moments of love, attention, and engagement that define each resident’s day.
Our community is built around a simple belief: that everyone deserves to feel seen, valued, and at home.
Redefining Memory Care with a Personal Touch
What makes luxury memory care at Kensington Park truly distinct is the way we go beyond a traditional approach to memory support.
Our community is designed to meet residents wherever they are on their cognitive journey, with deep respect for their individuality and uniqueness.
Our care teams develop personalized service plans that adapt to residents’ needs and preferences. Whether someone is in the early stages of dementia or experiencing more advanced memory loss, we provide a range of tailored support, from help with daily living to engaging activities that honor lifelong passions.
With 24/7 care and thoughtful coordination, families have peace of mind knowing their loved one is not only supported but thriving in a place that feels like home.
A Luxurious Environment with Purpose
Kensington Park offers a warm and elegant setting, nestled in the heart of Kensington, Maryland. Our campus is not only beautiful, but it is also intentionally designed with those with memory loss in mind. Every detail, from calming color schemes to secure garden paths, is carefully crafted to reduce anxiety, promote familiarity, and foster independence.
Our residences feature:
- Private and companion suites with thoughtful layouts
- Safety features like emergency call systems and secured access
- Bright, inviting common areas for social interaction and quiet reflection
- Outdoor courtyards and walking paths for fresh air and movement
- On-site culinary experiences with menus crafted to suit nutritional needs and preferences
Residents are surrounded by comfort, but also by purpose. Whether participating in a music therapy session, gardening in our courtyard, or engaging in a guided reminiscence activity, every experience is carefully designed to stimulate cognitive function and promote emotional well-being.
The Kensington Club: Support for Early Memory Loss
One of the most unique offerings at Kensington Park is The Kensington Club, a specialized program designed for residents in the early stages of memory loss. It provides cognitive support in a warm, structured setting, empowering members to maintain independence and stay connected.
The Kensington Club blends social engagement, brain-boosting exercises, and daily routines to create a joyful and stabilizing experience. From book discussions and wellness classes to personalized outings and games, every activity is thoughtfully planned to nurture abilities and boost confidence.
This program allows individuals to delay progression while providing meaningful opportunities to connect with others who share similar experiences. It’s one of the many ways we personalize care with luxury and love.
A Care Team That Feels Like Family
At Kensington Park, relationships come first. Our care partners receive comprehensive training in dementia care best practices, effective communication, and compassionate care. Many are PAC-certified through renowned dementia expert Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care®, helping ensure our approach is both effective and empathetic.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all care model, we work collaboratively across disciplines such as nursing, life enrichment, dining, and wellness to support the whole person.
We also recognize that memory care is a family journey. That’s why we extend our services to include caregiver support groups, education events, and open communication with loved ones. You’re never in this alone.
Engaging Life Enrichment Every Day
Cognitive decline does not diminish a person’s ability to feel joy, purpose, or connection.
The right kinds of sensory, emotional, and social engagement can enhance brain health and improve quality of life at any stage of memory loss.
Our life enrichment calendar includes a rich variety of:
- Art and music therapy
- Brain fitness games
- Aromatherapy and pet therapy
- Spiritual services and meditation
- Cultural and seasonal celebrations
- Guided exercise and wellness classes
These programs are led with intention, drawing from residents’ life stories and interests. Each activity is modified to support individuals at various stages of dementia, allowing everyone to participate with confidence.
Specialized Memory Care Neighborhoods
Kensington Park offers two distinct memory care neighborhoods: Connections and Haven. These neighborhoods enable us to tailor the environment and care to the level of cognitive need.
- Connections supports residents in the early to middle stages of dementia. It encourages independence while offering gentle reminders and structure.
- Haven is designed for individuals with more advanced memory loss, providing higher levels of care, comfort, and sensory engagement.
Both neighborhoods offer intimate settings, consistent care partners, and enriching daily experiences.
Residents are encouraged to move freely, enjoy personalized routines, and live in a space that feels familiar and secure.
Dining with Dignity: Thoughtful Culinary Experiences
Nutrition is key to both physical and cognitive wellness. Our dining program offers three chef-prepared meals daily, along with snacks and hydration support throughout the day. We create menus that are flavorful, nourishing, and adapted to any dietary needs.
We also use techniques like hand-over-hand assistance, finger foods, and dignified dining tools to help every resident enjoy their meals with ease and dignity. Mealtimes are not just nourishing, they’re social, celebratory, and comforting.
Our Promise: Love Is at the Core
Everything we do at Kensington Park is grounded in Our Promise: to love and care for your family as we do our own. This is more than a mission, it’s a commitment that guides how we show up, how we serve, and how we lead.
Luxury, for us, is measured in the warmth of a smile, the patience of a hand extended, and the dignity with which every resident is treated. It’s in the calm of the morning routine, the joy of a shared art project, and the memory sparked by a favorite song.
When families choose luxury memory care at Kensington Park, they’re choosing expert support, a beautiful environment, and most importantly, a home rooted in love.
