Dementia Services

Dementia Services

There are more than 13,000 men and women in Michigan who suffer from Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementia. As such, Grand Traverse Pavilions seeks to offer a full-spectrum of dementia services to individuals, who need support in the greater Grand Traverse region.

The Pavilions provides assisted living in Willow Cottage to residents with early stage dementia. As the disease progresses, mid to later-stage care is available in Elm Pavilion within the main building.

Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. The association reports more than 5 million people are living with the disease in the United States. Among seniors, one in three dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia.

Today, the national organization states an American develops Alzheimer’s disease every 68 seconds. In 2050, an American will develop the disease every 33 seconds. As the population ages, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease is estimated to reach 7 million in a little over a decade - a 40 percent increase

In addition to the individual who is the victim of the disease, the impact also takes a toll on the caregivers. Last year, the Alzheimer’s Association noted 15.4 million family and friends provided 17.5 billion hours of unpaid care to those with Alzheimer’s and other dementia.
