VERO BEACH, Fla., Dec. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Five years ago, the vision of Watercrest Senior Living Group Principal and CEO, Marc Vorkapich, came to fruition with the grand opening of Market Street Memory Care Residence Viera in Melbourne, Florida. This Market Street Memory Care community was the first of its kind, an innovative and artfully designed memory care community meeting the unique needs of seniors living with Alzheimer's and dementia. Designed, owned and operated by Watercrest Senior Living Group, the purposeful design of Market Street Viera connects the hearts and minds of residents by stimulating their senses with the purpose of re-experiencing memories.
"The smell of freshly cut grass instantly transports me back to the ball field where I spent time with my Dad," says Marc Vorkapich, Principal and CEO of Watercrest Senior Living Group. "Research shows that utilizing specific sights, sounds, and smells connects us to our memories. This critical element of our multi-sensory programming at Market Street Memory Care Residences is designed to incorporate the individual needs of each and every resident we serve. Today, we celebrate five outstanding years of significantly impacting the lives of our seniors and their families."
Market Street Memory Care Viera celebrated their five year anniversary with a holiday celebration, welcoming residents, friends and community partners to join in the festivities of honoring the community's success.
