Welcome to the Porter Pavilion, the dedicated memory care community at Avon Oaks, where we cherish every individual and celebrate each moment. Our groundbreaking approach to memory care is all about creating a supportive, family-like environment that respects the dignity and individuality of each resident. Our staff speaks the language of love, tailored to the needs of those with Alzheimer’s and related disorders.

Our Memory Care Philosophy:

Embracing Each Day with Love and Respect

At the Porter Pavilion, we understand that memory care is more than just addressing medical needs—it’s about nurturing the human spirit. Our philosophy is built on compassion, respect, and continual engagement. We create a supportive environment where residents with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can live a life full of warmth, joy, and meaningful engagement.

Our goal at Avon Oaks is minimizing stressors, compensating for losses, controlling fatigue, and decreasing catastrophic reactions and overreactions. Our constant caregiver training reinforces this goal by helping the staff put these concepts into daily practice.

A Day at
The Porter Pavilion:

  • Morning Wellness: Each day starts with gentle activities tailored to individual abilities, including light exercise and mindfulness practices that promote physical and mental well-being.
  • Interactive Storytelling: We encourage residents to share their stories and memories, which fosters a deep sense of community and helps maintain cognitive functions.
  • Creative Expressions: Art and music therapy sessions are integral. They allow residents to express themselves creatively, reducing stress and enhancing mood.
