Liberty Senior Living recognizes that each individual is unique, in both mind and body, and for that, we want to customize the experience of each individual that we serve.
Providing memory care that supports residents with compassion, structure and engaging daily experiences. We know that memory loss affects both the individual and their loved ones, which is why our program emphasizes dignity and connection at every step.
GEMMS Daily Programming Requirements:
Person-centered: Activities should be tailored to residents’ past interests, current abilities, and life stories.
Consistent routine: Predictable schedules reduce anxiety and confusion.
Purposeful engagement: Activities should feel meaningful (not “childlike”), giving residents a role or reason to participate.
Choice and flexibility: Offer options and allow residents to engage at their comfort level.
Social and relational: Engagement is more successful when built on trust, companionship, and empathy.
Short and frequent: Activities should be broken into manageable, shorter sessions with built-in rest.
Liberty GEMMS Pillars of Care
Abilities Matter!
Focus on what can be done, not what can’t be done.
Recognize and celebrate remaining strengths. Encourage independence in daily tasks, even if support is needed, to promote dignity and self-worth.
Behavior is Communication
Every action tells us something.
Understand that expressions, gestures, or changes in mood are often attempts to communicate needs, feelings, or discomfort when words may no longer come easily.
Connection Before Task
Build trust before moving into care activities.
Take time to approach gently, use eye contact, and connect emotionally before assisting with personal care. This reduces anxiety and fosters cooperation.
“Do with, not to”
Care is a partnership.
Engage the person as an active participant in their care. Involve them in choices, movements, and routines so that care feels collaborative, not imposed.

"The Carlisle of PB is a beautiful facility with caring staff. They have great programs that keep my Mother's mind working and puts a smile on her face. Her apt is big and the entire place is secure. It's a wonderful place!" - Stacy S.
"My mother has been living in the Memory Care side of The Carlisle for a little over a year and is living her best life. She is always smiling, participates in all the activities, and genuinely seems happy. The staff are fantastic people who obviously care and really put my mind at ease. Over the past year, there have been some positive changes that make me even happier with The Carlisle. Every 2 weeks, they bring in dolls that look very much like babies and pass them around for all to hold. It's been very popular. They also take residents who are interested in venturing out for ice cream or various other thoughtful activities that provide stimulation in a safe way. One of the best additions over the last 6 months or so is a support group for those who have loved ones at The Carlisle. We meet virtually each month to discuss various topics, share any struggles and provide guidance to each other. There is nothing like talking with others who know exactly what you are going through and have their loved one living in the same facility. There are so many emotions for those who care for someone with dementia...sadness, guilt, love, fear, anger, etc....meeting with this support group is very validating of all those emotions and has truly made a difference for me. There is no doubt in my mind that my mother is at the very best place for her and that is all that matters." - Wendy K.
"I recently had to look for a memory care for my mother. I toured The Carlisle and my first impression was wow, what a beautiful place. Then I was introduced to the Director of Sales. She welcomed me with a sincere, bright, beautiful smile that instantly made me feel welcome. She explained the process thoroughly and took the time to find out about my mom. Ultimately, The Carlisle was to far for me to visit my mother as frequently as I would like to, but I felt so strongly about the Director of Sales caring attitude and her diligence that I felt the needed to leave a review…. I highly recommend anyone looking for Independent, Assisted or Memory Care living to visit The Carlisle. You won’t be disappointed!" - Kerry S.
