Welcome to Desert Diamond Dementia Pavilion
Desert Diamond Dementia Pavilion is designed for seniors that have trouble thinking. Our memory neighborhood provides long-term comfort and care for residents with cognitive impairment. This expansive memory pavilion features 24/7 skilled nursing care, private studios and one-bedroom suites, large outdoor patio, multi-sensory therapy room, theatre, family visiting areas, dining room and hair salon.
Desert Diamond Dementia Pavilion is a Montessori Inspired Lifestyle™ it is based on the educational philosophies of childhood educator Dr. Maria Montessori. Dr. Cameron Camp discovered that Dr Montessori’s philosophies and principles could be effectively adapted as an approach for dementia care. This method focuses on re-discovering and supporting the person behind the dementia. Activities with meaning and purpose are put back into people’s lives, based on their needs, interests, skills and abilities.
Montessori’s methods help reduce and prevent challenging behaviors associated with dementia. Boredom and loneliness are reduced through activities that embrace roles, routines, and improve self-awareness. Our smaller, secured, homelike setting provides an environment that is more familiar and less overwhelming for residents.
