DR. UY’S PHILOPHY:
“Growing old in AGE is a FACT of life, and growing old with DIGNITY is a basic HUMAN RIGHT. But growing old with GRACE is a CHOICE, and a GIFT we can give to those who once cared for us when they’re no longer able make that choice.
I consider it the greatest of honors to care for those who have walked before us and made possible the life we all enjoy today. Even if those afflicted with dementia become unable to recount what has just happened, short as it may be, they still go through life’s experiences in the PRESENT. AND in those very fleeting moments of the present, we all have the capability to turn their life’s experiences around with power of the simplest of gestures - a smile, a kind word, an honest compliment, a listening ear, a gentle touch or the smallest act of caring – all of which can make the most significant of differences.”
