Awards & Recognition
Frontier’s Award-Winning Spark® Program
Imagine a program specially designed for seniors that not only strives to help them reach their full potential, but also provides an opportunity to spend their days with a sense of joyful purpose.

Everyday Thriving: A Spark® Lifestyle Inspired by Montessori Methods
Our award-winning, purpose-driven program for seniors. Inspired by Montessori Methods, Spark® focuses on engagement, social lifestyle and inclusion within the community at large.
- Based on science and research
- Based on rehabilitation techniques
- Keeps seniors socially engaged in a meaningful way
- Aims at increasing engagement and skills as we age
- Uses proprietary assessment tools that go beyond traditional methods
The effectiveness and success of our Spark® program for Assisted Living and Memory Care residents is based on these 4 foundational pillars:
SOCIAL ROLES
Everyone has a desire to be useful, so we ensure that each resident has a role in the community. Working the front desk or serving neighbors are examples of meaningful tasks that empower and connect residents.
SKILLS FOCUSED
Our Montessori Assessment Tool, created by the Center for Applied Research in Dementia, uncovers remaining skills often missed by traditional assessments. We can then strengthen and build on those identified skills.
PROCEDURAL MEMORY
Skills can be learned or improved through “procedural learning.” This repetition then allows routine activities to be performed with less need for concerted concentration.
PROGRESSION AND GOAL SETTING
By working on projects or learning topics over a longer period of time, always progressing toward a goal, residents become fully engaged and feel more successful.
Through our award-winning Spark® program, our amazing residents have developed a wonderful lavender soap that they create with great pride. This scent is a favorite among many of our residents. From the packaging to the production of the product itself, every step is handled by residents.
Everyone is impressed with the quality of the soap. It is used throughout our community, and given away as gifts. Due to the popularity of this first soap product, the residents hope to offer additional scents sometime in the future.
In our Frontier Senior Living communities, the Spark® program seeks to encourage dignity, choice and independence in all of our residents. We believe that all residents, regardless of stage of life, have Spark® within them. It is our mission to help them find it through a genuine sense of purpose and meaning.
