Silverado reacquires Aspen Park memory care community in Salt Lake City after nearly 30 years

Silverado, a nationally recognized memory care provider, has reacquired Silverado Aspen Park in Salt Lake City, marking its return to a market it served for nearly 20 years. The community, located at 1430 East 4500 South, officially rejoined Silverado on 1 September. The company brings enhanced dementia care programmes to the facility. Its Nexus brain health programme, validated by research with UC San Diego, showed a 60% improvement in cognition amongst participating residents. Silverado's Memory Air programme, which uses olfactory stimulation during sleep, demonstrated a 226% improvement in cognitive performance in university research. Silverado became the first long-term care provider worldwide to receive Alzheimer's Disease International Accreditation for its dementia care training. The company operates 28 memory care communities across 11 US states.
