Every senior has a unique life story. Their stories are made up of a rich tapestry of memories that they hold dear. These special memories can help guide the personalized care you receive in Memory Care at Traditions.
The Varietas® Memory Care Program by Traditions is our unique, specialized program for individuals living with Alzheimer’s or other age-related dementias. The mission of Varietas® is to maintain independence and improve quality of life by focusing on environment, engagement, and education.
Varietas® relies on the things we learn about your loved one to comfort and connect with them in a warm and nurturing environment.

Varietas® employees and managers receive Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) certification, which is the highest standard in Alzheimer’s and Dementia education. Training includes:
