William Young, Owner and Memory Care Specialist at Forever Young Memory Care began his journey to build the perfect home where seniors with dementia and Alzheimer’s can live purposeful lives in an environment designed to enhance their quality of life in every way. William’s vision started over 15 years ago, and was inspired by his personal experience with his Grandma Bernice. When William’s grandma needed care, he was committed to finding his Grandma the level of care she deserved, however, he was consistently disappointed with the 3 facilities she lived in. He wanted nothing more than to know she was safe, loved and cared for with respect and dignity. Unfortunately, Bernice never found the community that would provide the care William had envisioned; however, this experience marked the beginning of him realizing his passion to help people with dementia and Alzheimer’s. With the support of his wife Julie, family and friends, William decided to leave the corporate world to pursue his dream to create the community he wished his grandma could have lived in. While this hasn’t come without personal sacrifices, he is driven to provide the highest level of care and support families through this journey at Forever Young Memory Care. William obtained his administrator’s license for Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE) in 2009. Since then he has held a number of management positions across the industry, always specializing in dementia and Alzheimer’s. From his personal and professional experience, William has designed every aspect of this custom home with his residents needs in mind. He is committed to ensuring that the people that join his community become family and that the home is filled with passion, purpose, and love.
