Our Approach to Senior Care - Artis Senior Living of Reading

Well-Being Philosophy

Holistic Care, The Artis Way

To help people with dementia experience optimal well-being, we start with our signature Partnership Profile, a questionnaire that helps give us a thorough and thoughtful understanding of their history, interests, and personal qualities.
We take these responses and create a structure, routine and care plan with opportunities for social connection and freedom to be one’s authentic self.

Our evidence-based, holistic well-being framework includes an optimal combination of a supportive environment, discreet care, social connection, and cognitive health.

Environment

Our intentionally designed communities promote safety and independence with adaptive, accessible design, décor that creates a sense of familiarity, and secure outdoor spaces that encourage exploration.

Care

We provide support with medication reminders and activities of daily living, along with better nutrition and exercise programs to enhance overall well-being.

Connection

We offer daily, well-rounded opportunities for participation and social engagement with neighbors, associates, friends, and family – and monthly outings – fostering a sense of autonomy, belonging, and purpose.

Cognitive Support

We engage residents in specialized programs and therapies designed to stimulate cognitive function and promote emotional well-being, including music and art therapy, memory-enhancing exercises and games, reminiscence therapy, and sensory stimulation exercises.

Memory Care

Memory Care at Artis is designed to help people living with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia feel empowered in their care and in their day-to-day lives. A licensed nurse is on site 24/7, and associates are specially trained in dementia care.

UPDATE! My aunt is doing even better than when I first wrote review. Her quality of life is so much better at the Artis.
If you want peace of mind for your loved ones send them to The Artis. They relieve any stress you would have and care about your family. I am so happy to have switched from a location in Stoneham to The Artis. My aunt is so much better. I am grateful for the staff.

Our family was very lucky to find Artist Senior Living for my mother. She was previously at another place, so I can tell you that the Artist way of caring for residents is always with respect and love. Last week as I was about to leave, one of the residents wanted to go out a locked door and I wondered how the situation would be resolved. The care giver stopped about 10 from her and just said, “Mary (not her real name) do you want a hug?” Mary immediately turned and went for the hug. I thought to myself, that is how I want my loved one to be treated, heck, that is how I want to be treated also.
Thank you to everyone at Artist for the kind and compassionate care you give to everyone: residents and family.
With gratitude,
Denise Korzeniowski

My mother was in another memory care in the area. We moved Mom to Artis in November of 2019. She loved it here. We were pleased with the facility. When my Mom became terminal they worked with us to allow her to live out her final days here. During those last days everyone was amazing in offering support in any way they could to myself, my family and my mother. Many took the time to come in and see her in her last days, which was very kind of them.

I wish we had moved her here when they first opened. Artis is dedicated to memory care and it is clear with the design of the building. The staff is given information sheets on each resident and they read them and use that to engage the residents. I loved that about Artis.

Keith Snyder, the concierge of Artis Senior Living Reading welcomed my mother and by association me, from the very beginning and every day since. A bright light, he also visits the community within, so he has gotten to know my mother just as he has gotten to know me each time I visit or take her out. His empathy and compassion, as well as friendly professionalism and knowledge, go a long way to making visiting a more fun experience. His thoughtful candor creates trust. From my perspective, his multi-faceted role is executed with ease,
grace,, and attention to detail. I’m glad Keith Snyder is there.

When faced with the decision to place our family member in a facility, we experienced anxiety, guilt, loss. I have no doubt that I made the best decision for my sister when I placed her at Artis. The plan was to move her into my home, yet we quickly realized that she needed professional care giving, stimulation, a community of people, monitoring, a safe environment which we simply were not equipped to provide. We made the right decision to place her in Artis Reading. The managers, caregivers, nurses, concierge staff, chefs, food preparation staff, maintenance staff give their residents and family members their utmost best. A phenomenal home for those with dementia/alzheimers.
