Frontier Senior Living’s award-winning SPARK® program is exactly that!

SPARK® is a research-based program inspired by the teachings and research of Maria Montessori and Dr. Cameron Camp, which focuses on giving residents meaningful ways to feel needed and be productive. We use tailor-fit assessment tools to evaluate each resident’s capabilities and strengths, so the program can best meet their specific needs.

The Four Pillars of the Frontier SPARK® Program 

The effectiveness and success of our SPARK® program for Assisted Living & Memory Care Residents is based on 4 foundational pillars.

• Social: We ensure that each resident has a role in the community that allows them to interact with others.
• Skills Focused: Our Montessori Assessment Tool uncovers remaining skills often missed by traditional evaluations.
• Procedural Memory: Skills can be learned and even improved through repetitive “procedural learning,” which allows residents to perform routine activities with less concerted effort.
• Progression & Goal Setting: Residents who work on projects or learn new things over a period of time with a set goal in mind feel more engaged and successful.

Inspiring contribution, productivity and engagement from all of our residents is our mission. Residents are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities based on their personal interests and abilities. We celebrate our seniors as the unique individuals that they are by providing them with both meaningful experiences and proven therapeutic techniques to help them retain their cognitive capabilities to the fullest extent possible.
