Specialized Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care at Home
A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia doesn’t have to mean a move to assisted living. With our specialized Alzheimer’s home care services, older adults with dementia can continue to live safely in the comfort of home.
For someone with dementia, routine and familiarity are crucial. The home environment allows for consistency and predictability. The person’s favorite breakfast can be served in the same comfortable place at the table, at the same time as always. They can continue to enjoy that morning walk around the block to chat with the neighbors. They are surrounded by mementos, photos, and belongings collected over a lifetime.
How Can Someone With Dementia Continue to Live at Home?
Our dementia experts are extensively trained and experienced in patient, effective, and creative caregiving techniques. They understand the challenging behaviors and emotions that are part of the disease. They are adaptable to each person’s unique needs and difficulties.
Most importantly, they will get to know the individual personally: their likes/dislikes, former career and lifestyle, and what makes them who they are. This allows them to customize the care provided to better engage and develop meaningful activities.
Our dementia care at home helps families to better manage challenges such as:
- Wandering
- Aggression
- Agitation
- Sundowning
- Repetitive behaviors
- Cognitive decline
- Confusion and disorientation
- And more
