Our Award-Winning Spark® Program

The friendly and compassionate staff at Oak Hills Terrace is proud to offer our Memory Care residents our award-winning Spark® program.  Imagine a program designed for seniors that strives to help them reach their full potential and allows them to spend their days with a joyful purpose. Frontier Management’s award-winning Spark® program is precisely 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 that the program can best meet their needs.

The Four Pillars of the Frontier Spark® Program 

The effectiveness and success of our Spark® program for 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.

Our mission is to inspire contribution, productivity, and engagement from our residents. Residents are encouraged to participate in various activities based on their 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.

Memory Care vs. Assisted Living

When considering the best living arrangement for a loved one, it’s important to understand the distinctions between memory care and assisted living. While both options offer supportive environments for seniors, they cater to different needs.

Assisted Living provides residents with help in daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, fostering independence in a community setting. This option is ideal for seniors who need some assistance but still maintain a level of self-sufficiency.

Memory Care, on the other hand, is specifically designed for individuals dealing with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other memory-related conditions. It offers a secure environment with specialized staff trained to manage the unique challenges of memory loss. Unlike assisted living, memory care emphasizes care that supports routines and care plans to enhance cognitive function.

Choosing between memory care and assisted living depends on the specific needs of your loved one. While assisted living supports those requiring general assistance, memory care provides a specialized approach for those facing memory challenges, ensuring their safety and well-being.
