Heartland Harmony
A Memory Enhancement Center
Effingham’s Newest Alzheimer’s Solution

Clinically-proven activities are administered by the area’s leading geriatric counselor, Linda Warner. 

Heartland Harmony is a memory enhancement center that engages participants in meaningful activities and gives family members or caregivers some much-needed free time.  Heartland Harmony offers a weekly program for people who have memory problems.  The difference between Heartland Harmony and other respite programs is the professional engagement.  We’ll help create harmony between the Care Giver and the Care Receiver. 

Activities are important for persons with Alzheimer’s disease because those engaging in activities hold onto their remaining cognitive skills longer according to Dr. Paul Raia, Director of Patient Care and Family Support of the Alzheimer’s Association, Massachusetts Chapter. Our activities at Heartland Harmony provide mental stimulation and reminiscing opportunities. These activities give those with Alzheimer’s disease a sense of purpose and self worth, provide a social outlet and improve mood and sleep behaviors; making depression less likely.
