Hello @paper7

Memory Care is a term I have only heard of from people in US. Which country are you in? If you are in UK it may be that the American term has started to be adopted here too, but usually in UK they are called EMI or Dedicated Dementia Units/homes. My mum was in one and the care was very good as there was a higher staff ratio and they had better training and experience in dementia care
