Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
Home care and care management can provide great comfort for people who are living with Alzheimer’s or other dementia, as well as their family. Those with Alzheimer’s or other dementia should be encouraged to continue their normal activities as long as they’re safe and the activities don’t cause frustration or confusion. Our home care and care management services can help your loved one live at home and give you much-needed relief.
Alzheimer’s disease, the most common cause of dementia, is a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions. Dementia evolves over time, and care will need to be adjusted as symptoms change and progress.
Our specialized caregivers receive ongoing training to work with Alzheimer’s and dementia clients. People with Alzheimer’s disease cannot control what is happening to them. As caregivers we are the ones who must change and learn new ways to relate to each individual who is living with Alzheimer’s.
We are companions and caregivers, listeners and helpers. Mental, social and physical activities help maintain a person’s health and well-being. Our caregivers engage the individual with mind-stimulating activities including taking walks, singing songs, reading, talking, telling stories and doing puzzles.
Our unique caregivers also focus on safety supervision, support with activities that maximize independence, nutritious meal preparation, and assistance with personal hygiene and grooming.
