The hardest part of the holidays isn't the dementia — it's the family conflict about how to handle it. Should you keep the elaborate traditions or simplify everything? Is it worth it if they won't remember? This Christmas Eve, we're resharing the episode that helped hundreds of families navigate these exact questions and let go of perfect traditions to embrace what really matters.
Wishing you a very Happy Hanukkah. Our wonderful residents have been leading joyful candle lighting ceremonies in our beautiful library, filled with music, prayers, and sharing stories.

What if the secret to having more enjoyable holidays isn't doing more, but doing less? 🎄 In our latest episode, Senior Memory Care Director Regina Trent reveals how families who have loved ones with dementia are rediscovering holiday joy by simplifying traditions, timing visits differently, and focusing on what truly matters: comfort, familiarity, and being together. From decorating wreaths to sharing cocoa in vintage Santa mugs, these small moments create the biggest memories.
Wishing everyone a joyful and bright Hanukkah from The Watermark at Brooklyn Heights!🕎✨ Celebrate the festival of lights with family and friends.

What do you give someone with dementia when nothing feels right anymore?
We're kicking off our holiday series by tackling the question so many families are asking right now. Senior Memory Care Director Regina Trent joins Dawn to break down what works, what doesn't, and why that 'perfect gift' you're searching for might not be what your loved one needs most.
The holidays can feel overwhelming when dementia is part of your family's story. That's why we created "Dementia & the Holidays: Support, Stories & Solutions," a heartfelt four-part series to help you navigate this season with less stress and more joy.
Whether you're wondering how to choose meaningful gifts for your loved one with dementia, how to manage family conflicts around traditions, or simply trying to find moments of peace as a caregiver during the busiest time of year, we're here with practical guidance and compassionate support. We'll help you rediscover what makes the holidays special while honoring both your loved one's needs and your own.
You don't have to do this alone. Tune in this Friday for the first episode in this series and discover how to create a holiday season filled with connection despite the challenges you may be facing.
