Sweet Readers
Riverstone collaborates with community organizations to bring additional services and activities to clients. Sweet Readers is a good example.
Riverstone’s state-of-the-art Memory Center is housed in a beautiful space specifically designed for this population. This highly supervised program provides stimulation and social interaction for people at various stages of memory loss due to Alzheimer’s, dementia or other illness. The program encourages engagement, communication, and activity that helps individuals engage with others and function mentally and physically at the highest possible level.
Special events like fashion shows, birthday and holiday parties provide rewarding experiences for program members.
Transportation can be provided within our catchment area. Vans accommodate wheelchair users. Fees may be covered by Medicaid Long Term Care (MLTC), Private Long Term Care or private pay.
The Memory Center is funded in part by the New York State Office for the Aging, New York City Department of Youth & Community Development, the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, and The Fan Fox and Leslie R. Samuels Foundation.
