Do Alzheimer’s and Dementia Patients Do Better at Home?
The biggest value in hiring in-home Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers to provide care for an elderly loved one with dementia or chronic health problems, is that it allows them to age in place.
Our dementia care services allow seniors to stay in their own home for as long as possible, before moving on to an assisted living facility or nursing home. Familiar environments offer a great deal of security and peace of mind for individuals with dementia.
Alzheimer’s Disease is commonly known as a memory disorder, but it affects your loved one in more ways than just their memories. Along with moments of forgetfulness and confusion, they might experience changes to their personality and emotional well-being. In later stages, Alzheimer’s patients may also need assistance from caregivers for dressing or bathing themselves among other day-to-day activities like eating.
Cranberry Home Care Provides Comprehensive Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Services To Give You Peace Of Mind
In-home care is the first choice for seniors with all types of dementia diagnoses. For those who want to stay in their homes, it is an excellent option, giving seniors and families comfort and the peace of mind they need. Home care also offers assistance for family caregivers by helping them get rest and self-care, to stay healthy and recharge.
Cranberry Home Care’s Alzheimer’s in-home care services are beneficial because they allow patients/clients remain where they are comfortable and anxiety levels are decreased. Specially trained home health aides for dementia patients can be the ideal starting point for families who need extra help with their loved ones but want to prevent or delay placement in a long-term care facility.
Alzheimer’s In-Home Care Changes as Your Family Needs More Help
Cranberry Home Care’s in-home dementia care can be modified to provide as much or as little assistance a senior requires, and changes can be made whenever necessary. There are non-medical options such as companion care and homemaker services.
There are also personal care options that include aides who assist individuals with daily activities like bathing or feeding themselves while monitoring other needs.
In-home care for Alzheimer’s and dementia clients might only last for a short time when the primary family caregiver is recovering from injury/illness (a respite), or it might be around-the-clock care for a long period of time. Senior care come in all shapes and sizes depending on what kind of need you’re experiencing.
