We are a premier memory care community in Waterford Lakes, Florida! We believe strongly in providing our residents and their families with meaning, purpose, and success through a culture of collaborative engagement.
It’s a community of caregivers who truly care. There’s no need for me to single out a few outstanding employees, because it’s literally the entire staff! Every staff member is an expert at what they do. Upon moving in, the care team quickly got to know both of my parents and provided them with exactly the environment they needed. Unbeknownst to us, the facility my parents lived in prior to Certus was essentially neglecting them to the point of rapid decline. My mother, in particular, was suffering from malnutrition, dehydration, and medicine mismanagement. Certus quickly put her on a rigid schedule to ensure that she received precisely what she needed to thrive. She has made a remarkable turnaround since moving into Certus, so much so that she is now relocating an assisted living facility.
The Certus team is excellent when it comes to communicating with the family. They let us know what’s going on and if there’s anything we need to take care of. They handle everything from medication management to coordination with visiting physicians. The environment is clean, attractive, and cheery. It’s a joy to watch the staff interact with the residents with such genuine love. I cannot praise Certus enough – there’s no place quite like it.
Certus is changing the way memory care is done, leading the way in Florida and across the nation. Our affiliate, the Certus Institute (CI), offers nationally approved training to associates, family members, and community partners. As a standard, we require all of our staff to complete dementia certification and training to validate their skills and understanding of dementia.
In concert with the Certus Institute, our communities partner with like-minded organizations to enhance our services and ensure that we’re in touch with the most up to date research and findings. Some of our organization partners include the National Institute for Dementia Education (NIDE), Lynchburg College’s Beard Center on Aging, Alzheimer’s & Dementia Resource Center, and The Byrd Alzheimer’s institute.
