SLOW DOWN MEMORY LOSS
Memory & Company’s vision is to remain ahead of the times by focusing on innovative, new techniques in care, and in technology, so that you will receive the best, up-to-date care and support.
For example, in partnership with York University, we found that 80% of our Members who participated in the study improved their cognitive functioning. How? It was a combination of exercise using a specially designed “thinking-while-moving” app, and participation in our Day Program. Read more >
“80%… improved their cognitive functioning”
Participation in research-based programs are optional, and free of charge.

FEATURES
AFFORDABLE
We’re a fraction of the price of home care, and with so much more!
A full day at Memory & Company costs about the same as four hours of home care. Fees are HST exempt, income tax deductible, and qualifies under certain Life & Critical Care insurance plans and Health Spending accounts.
MEMORY CARE SPECIALISTS
We provide a minimum of 5:1 (Member to staff) ratio. Our staff are Recreation Therapists, Personal Support Workers, Social Workers, Nurses, and Gerontologists, all highly-trained and specialize in memory loss, Alzheimer’s, related dementias, as well as acquired brain injury, Parkinson’s and stroke, to name a few.
MEMBERSHIPS TO SUIT YOUR NEEDS
Memory & Company is open 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week. We customize memberships to suit your lifestyle. Choose from as little as four hours per week, to seven days per week. We also have flex-plans for those who only require us occasionally.
AMENITIES
Memory & Company features a unique space, furnished with high-end amenities, and designed to be easy to navigate and safe for those with memory challenges. Activities are wide-ranging, including a putting green, movie theatre, beauty salon, state-of-the-art kitchen, and more. It’s a place anyone would enjoy.
PERSONAL CARE & SPA
We want our Members to look good and feel good. Need even more services like hairstylist, physiotherapy, or dentistry to name a few? No problem. We’ll arrange it. At Memory & Company, services come to our Members, not the other way around. Additional fees may apply depending on services.
MIND-HEALTHY DINING
Delicious, made-to-order breakfast and hot lunches are prepared daily, on site, by our Executive Chef, using ingredients rich in anti-oxidants and good fats. Snacks and beverages are provided throughout the day. Dining is included in Memberships (some exceptions apply).
“Healthy Foods Lead to Healthier Minds.”
Memory & Company is proud to have Executive Chef Denvil Christie on our Markham Club team.
Having a private chef means our Members and their Caregivers can have peace-of-mind that healthy, wholesome meals are being prepared, fresh, in-house, with nutrition and dietary restrictions in mind.
When we asked Chef to write his bio, this is what he said:
“I’m a humble person who is hardworking and also a team player. I like to travel and worked in many different places. I’m a family man like to spend time with my kids and like to go to church and just praising my Lord and Saviour.
Pretty much down to earth. I also consider myself a giver who cares for others. I love to watch movies and cartoons. I don’t like to gloat much or talk about myself.”
He was too humble to say he’s been an Executive Chef in the glamorous L.A. to the opulent Cayman Islands, and in the past decade has specialized in the Senior care industry where he finds the perfect work-life balance for his true love: his family.
Memory & Company is proud to have Executive Chef Paul Maxwell on our Oakville Club team.
Trained at the Disney Institute of Customer Service (California), and in French and Pacific Coast cuisine, Chef Maxwell has travelled across North America to perfect his art. He has worked and managed restaurants, pubs, a YMCA youth help centre, and the Metro Toronto Convention Centre delighting families, to pub crawlers, to Heads of State.
In his spare time, he enjoys sports, music and renovation projects. Most of all, he enjoys spending time with his wife and planning culinary and wine adventures, and time with his dog, Wally.
