Memory Care Facility Virginia Beach
Memory Care Built on Kindness
When your loved one is living with memory loss, you want them to be cared for with the patience and kindness they deserve. At Marina Bay, our memory care neighborhood at Atlantic Shores, a high staff-to-resident ratio provides the safest and most supportive environment for those needing Alzheimer’s care or Dementia care.
Because finding the right balance of care and independence is different for every person, we work closely with families to ensure their loved one’s individual preferences and needs are respected at all times. While our staff are highly skilled at managing older adults at every level of dementia and Alzheimer’s care, it’s their gentleness and genuine compassion for the people we serve that makes Marina Bay such a special place. Your loved one is celebrated, and their remaining abilities supported with activities that promote their independence, dignity and satisfaction with life.
In Marina Bay, residents benefit from the unique and innovative Heartfelt CONNECTIONS – A Memory Care Program®. Heartfelt CONNECTIONS offers people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias the care, respect, dignity and quality of life loved ones want for them.

Heartfelt CONNECTIONS is a nationally recognized, person centered, activity-focused program that is grounded in the knowledge that the abilities that remain for an individual impacted by Alzheimer’s or other dementias are much more important than what is lost. By leveraging this specialized dementia care, we help loved ones capture a lasting legacy about each resident’s family, their friends, career, hobbies, likes and dislikes, and then apply these insights to individualized programming for the resident. Through this program, we focus on each resident’s unique abilities, enriching lives and creating success stories one small victory at a time.
