THE KENSINGTON CLUB
Our New Early-Stage
Memory Care Program
The Kensington Reston is a leading senior living provider of best-in-class memory care. Our experience has shown that memory loss is as unique as each resident we serve. Although the progression of decline is often predictable, its pace and how it affects individuals are not. So, we strive to “catch” telltale symptoms as early as possible and then take immediate, personalized steps to preserve existing cognitive ability.
To that end, we are pleased to introduce The Kensington Club, our unique early-stage memory care program for new and current assisted living residents experiencing mild changes in cognition. It features a strong relationship-based focus, peer support, sensory movement and family participation. Our professionally trained team provides individualized support that increases resident confidence, comfort and trust.

A Resource for Caregivers and Families
