Memory Care

Riley Crossing is proud to offer Ebenezer’s trademarked Dimensions Program to residents within our secure memory care communities, designed specifically for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. This program empowers Ebenezer staff to provide exceptional, compassionate care based on current best practices.

Our beautiful two-story common space is flooded with natural light and offers a variety of hobby nooks with ample opportunities for residents to grab a book from our carefully selected library, listen to the music of their choosing, reminisce in the sewing corner, or mix up something delicious in our activity kitchen space.
