Alzheimer’s Care
Our services include personalized care plans, skilled caregiving, and support for family members. By helping with medication management, daily routines, and offering cognitive stimulation activities, we play a crucial role in supporting the community by enabling people with Alzheimer’s to maintain as much independence and dignity as possible.
Alzheimer’s Care Services Include:
-
Medication Management
This service ensures that individuals with Alzheimer's take their medications correctly and on time. Due to memory loss, it can be challenging for those with Alzheimer's to manage their medication regimen, so caregivers provide reminders and monitor intake to avoid missed doses or taking too many.
-
Safety Modifications
As Alzheimer’s progresses, the risk of accidents increases. Caregivers can help implement safety measures in the home such as securing rugs, installing grab bars in the bathroom, and ensuring that the home is generally safer to navigate to prevent falls and injuries.
-
Nutritional Support
Proper nutrition is vital for maintaining health in Alzheimer's patients. Caregivers can assist in preparing healthy meals that meet the dietary needs of the individual and help with feeding if necessary, ensuring that nutritional intake is maintained.
-
Behavioral Management
Alzheimer's can lead to changes in behavior, such as agitation or aggression. Caregivers are trained to handle these behaviors calmly and effectively, using techniques to redirect attention or soothe the individual through communication and activities that engage them in a comforting manner.
-
Family Support and Education
Alzheimer’s care services often extend support to family members by providing education about the disease and how to effectively support their loved one. This might include training on coping strategies, communication techniques, and information on what to expect as the disease progresses.
-
Respite Care
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s can be demanding and exhausting for family caregivers. Respite care offers temporary relief, allowing family caregivers to take a break, focus on their own health and well-being, or attend to other responsibilities. This service can be scheduled regularly or on an as-needed basis to support family caregivers in maintaining their own quality of life.
