Our Mission

Through our MyLife Memory Support Program, we help residents living with dementia experience purpose, connection, dignity, and joy every day. We recognize each resident as a unique individual with a rich life story, personal strengths, and meaningful relationships that continue to shape who they are.

Our approach is guided by five core principles:

  • Unique – Honoring each resident’s personal story, strengths, preferences, and abilities.
  • Recognize – Understanding behavior as a form of communication and responding with empathy.
  • Meaningful – Creating moments of purpose, joy, and connection throughout each day.
  • Engage – Encouraging participation in activities, relationships, and daily life.
  • Join – Meeting residents where they are with compassion, understanding, and respect.

Through personalized engagement, Memory Books, meaningful daily experiences, and family partnerships, we help residents remain connected to what matters most while enhancing quality of life at every stage of their journey.

Memory Care Resources

Just prior to the COVID 19 outbreak my parents transitioned from their family home to AlmaVia of San Rafael. During this time my parents shared “We want for nothing,” “We feel so secure,” “The food is amazing,” and “Our health and well being are continually looked after by staff.” These were comforting words to hear from our parents approaching 90 years in the midst of a virus outbreak and transitioning to a new home. Having spent 35 years in hospital management I could tell you of their electronic record, daily health checks, COVID screenings, and staff to resident ratios but the true litmus test has been my parents’ happiness and security at AlmaVia.Mark F.AlmaVia of San Rafael
