Ramsey Seniors Receive Garden Therapy

The Memory Care Living TOUCH program facilitates physical, mental and psychological stimulation for seniors with memory impairment.

There's much more to gardening than making your lawn pretty.

Seniors at Memory Care Living participated in the TOUCH program, which provides physical, social and psychological stimulation.

For those with memory impairment, gardening creates calmness and a feeling of being close to nature. It also provides exercise and encourages interaction between peers and staff.

To learn more about activities for seniors with memory impairments, visit the Memory Care Living website or call 1-800-935-9898.
