Fresh, flavorful food is a given at The Preserve. What makes our dining experience special is the way we cater meals to you. Our chef and staff will ask your preferences to make your dining experience not only tasty, but also tailored to you. From all-day breakfast options, to decadent desserts, you can enjoy the finer things in life in our restaurant-style dining that is open throughout the day.
For those who need or prefer special diets, such as a low-sodium or sugar-free diet, you have that choice too! Our kitchen coordinates with our clinicians to ensure you’re getting a diet that is not only delicious, but also healthy.
Memory Care Meals
Our caregivers are experienced in caring for seniors living with dementia. It’s important that we adapt to each person’s needs so that their dining experience is as fulfilling as possible. Our memory care dining program includes:
- Large print menus with contrasting colors and photos of food to promote independence when ordering;
- Nutritious meal options intended to reduce weight loss;
- Caregiver assistance as needed for those who need a little help during mealtimes; and,
- Routine and consistent seating arrangements to reduce stress and confusion.
