Diane Ensminger Discusses Alzheimer’s & Dementia

Dianne Ensminger Diane Ensminger explained to the Lawrence Central Rotary Club that she created Allie’s Village Memory Care Homes, LLC, in honor of her mother Allie, a victim of Alzheimer’s disease.  As CEO and owner of Allie’s Village, Diane is committed to providing comfort to the persons living with Alzheimer’s & dementia and their families.  The facility promises customized care for those living with the disease.  Diane declares, “You do not need to walk alone or be afraid, we are here to help you.”

Alzheimer’s and dementia are potential issues for many as the population ages.  Statistics predict that one in eight people over age 65 will have Alzheimer’s disease.  The Huffington Post blog gave a dire prediction on April 9, 2014:

Our country is in the middle of an Alzheimer’s crisis that has already been devastating to millions among the “greatest generation,” is well on its way toward doing the same directly to the “boomers,” and has already immersed their progeny in caregiving. Right now there are more than 5 million Americans who have this progressive, degenerative and fatal disease.

Allie’s Village opened just over a year ago in spring 2013.  Its eight bedrooms and five day-care openings are full, and there are five people on the waiting list.  The residence takes pride in its ratio of one caregiver for two every residents, ensuring that residents have an opportunity for constant interaction and activities that match their interests.  The family-centered philosophy at Allie’s Village ensures its happy, loving environment and its partnership with the loved ones of its residents.
