Christopher Carter of Purple Flag for Dementia Care™ presented the team at Masonicare at Mystic with their Purple Flag signifying accreditation in 2021.
Purple Flag for Dementia Care™is an accreditation program developed to recognize excellence and drive continuous improvement in the quality of services provided by those who care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias. Purple Flag for Dementia Care™ originated through a collaboration between the Institute for Senior Living Education (ISLE) and the Connecticut Assisted Living Association (CALA). Upon approval, providers receive the distinctive Purple Flag as a symbol that communicates their commitment to leadership in the field of memory care. Today, we want to highlight those communities that have pursued and shown commitment to accreditation.
