High Plains Alzheimer's Special Care Center

The friendly and compassionate staff at High Plains are proud to offer our Memory Care and Assisted Living residents the award-winning SPARK™ program.

SPARK was inspired by the teachings and research of Maria Montessori and Dr. Cameron Camp and provides meaningful and life-enhancing experiences for members of our Memory Care and Assisted Living communities.

Our unique program engages our residents with proven strategies that strive to heighten interaction, optimize cognitive skills as well as promote a sense of purpose and accomplishment. We use tailor-fit assessment tools to evaluate each resident’s capabilities and strengths, so the program can best meet their specific needs. Residents are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities based on their interests and abilities.

From art therapy, arts and crafts, baking and cooking classes, bingo card writing activities, coloring day, donation drives, group exercise classes, holiday celebrations, ice cream socials, lunch outings, manicures, pedicures, mass services, music and pet therapy, and more, SPARK has something for everyone to enjoy!
