New Integrations at Hillside Terrace: Gentle Technology and Memory Support

As research of memory loss and understanding of technology integration continues to grow, Hillside Terrace is focused on helping residents feel calmer, safer, and more connected in their daily lives. 

Memory loss affects everyone differently, so we create simple, predictable routines tailored to each resident. This structure helps ease stress and offers a clearer sense of each day. With supportive guidance and activities like music, movement, creativity, and quiet connection, residents can feel more grounded and supported.

 

As smart technology becomes more common in 2026, we know it can feel confusing or even overwhelming for older adults. That’s why we take a gentle approach, introducing tools when they’re helpful and easy to use, such as smart watches, fitness trackers, and simple home gadgets to enhance independence and help residents connected to their families.

Everyone’s personality is different, and we know that means their social needs are too. In 2026, our assisted senior living community in Ann Arbor continues to honor those differences for your loved one, through both personalized wellness programs, and social engagement in simple group activities. 

As a family-owned community, we understand how deeply each part of a person’s health affects the others. That’s why our wellness programs focus on caring for the whole person—nourishing the body, supporting the mind, and encouraging gentle movement each day. From exercise 6 days a week, to following the best nutritional meal plan, we meet your loved one with optimal care.

 

Residents can also join group activities, meet new friends through wellness programs and other activities, or enjoy peaceful independent time when they prefer quiet. At the end of every day, our goal is to create a place where your loved one feels supported, understood, and connected.
