Mary Jane Foster was a talented artist, known for her gallery of beautiful landscape paintings. However, after a bout with a UTI and nine days in the hospital, she returned home with lingering disorientation. Her friends, who had been caring for her, noticed that her once-traditional style had shifted to abstract, unrecognizable images, reflecting a decline in cognitive clarity.

After a thorough evaluation, Mary Jane was not formally diagnosed with dementia but was advised by her physician that she was showing early signs. Deciding to take proactive steps, she chose to move into a dementia care assisted living facility, entrusting the care of her home and gallery to her friends.

Mary Jane wanted to be in a safe, secure environment where she could focus on her art without the stress of maintaining a home. She hoped that engagement activities would help strengthen her cognitive abilities and keep her connected to her passion.

Payment Plan: Mary Jane’s care is funded by the proceeds from selling her artwork and the income from renting out her home. She also has savings set aside to ensure she remains in a supportive, creative environment that encourages her artistic expression.

Price: $4,700 (Studio Room + Level 1 Care)
