We’re thrilled to welcome Francois Bend Senior Living — and its Around the Bend memory care program — into the NCCDP Memory Care Excellence Network (MCEN). Earning the Memory Care Seal of Excellence is a meaningful milestone that recognizes a deep, organization‑wide commitment to compassionate, person‑centered dementia care.
