Improving the Quality of Life for People
with Memory Loss and their Caregivers
For more than 40 years, the New York Memory Center has been an experienced community leader in offering an enlightened standard of care and support for people affected by memory loss and their caregivers.
Memory loss can take many forms — including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, frontotemporal dementia, among others. If you or someone you love is affected by memory loss, we understand how challenging, stressful, and lonely things can be. At the New York Memory Center, we strive to ensure the very best quality of life for both the person living with memory loss and for those who love and care for them. At any age and at any stage, all are welcome with us!
Our social-model day programs are located in Park Slope, Brooklyn, and are especially tailored to meet the unique needs of people living with memory loss. We offer a wide range of diverse programming with the structure and support our members need to fully enjoy them. Programs offered include live music and singing, hands-on art workshops, gentle exercise classes, and social activities. The program also offers a hot lunch meal and snacks, as well as safe accessible van transportation to and from most neighborhoods in Brooklyn. The Center is currently open on weekdays from 9:30am to 3:00pm.
For our members, the program offers opportunities to build community and a sense of belonging and purpose, maintaining independence, as well as relief from the isolation, loneliness, boredom, and depression that can accompany living with memory loss. For caregivers, the program brings valuable peace of mind, time to focus on work, family, and self-care, as well as support coping with the stress of caring for someone living with memory loss.
