At 72, Delores Whitaker received a life-changing diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease. A dedicated wife, mother, and grandmother, Delores had always been active and independent. She worked for 20 years in a public setting after raising her children, and her love for music led her to play both the piano and classical violin. Deeply involved in her church, she even learned Latin as a child and passed that knowledge on to her children, helping them understand language through Latin roots.

The first signs of Delores’ condition emerged when her family noticed she had stopped solving her beloved word puzzles and had started scribbling in the books instead. Over the next few years, her condition progressed; by the age of 75, Delores struggled to manage daily tasks like cooking and laundry, and she began to resist bathing. When she started wandering away from home at age 80, her family made the difficult decision to seek a safe and supportive environment for her at Century Assisted Living.

Delores’ only diagnosis was Alzheimer’s, and she required gentle assistance with daily activities. She benefits from personalized social and cognitive engagement, which helps keep her active and reduces the risk of depression.
