What is Alzheimer's & Dementia Care?
Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care involves specialized support for individuals who experience memory loss, confusion, mood changes, and other cognitive impairments. This care focuses on helping individuals maintain their dignity, independence, and quality of life while managing the progression of the disease. Our caregivers are trained to provide both physical assistance and emotional support, creating a nurturing environment tailored to each person’s unique needs.
What We Offer:

Specialized Memory Care
Our caregivers are experienced in managing the unique challenges of Alzheimer’s and Dementia. We use gentle reminders, cognitive stimulation activities, and structured routines to help clients maintain their mental abilities and reduce confusion. This includes memory games, reading, reminiscing, and other tailored activities that encourage mental engagement.Assistance with Daily Living Activities (ADLs)
Individuals with Alzheimer’s or Dementia often require help with everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. Our caregivers provide this assistance with sensitivity and respect, ensuring that your loved one feels comfortable and maintains their dignity.Behavioral and Mood Management
Alzheimer’s and Dementia can cause behavioral changes such as agitation, anxiety, or aggression.

Loneliness and isolation can exacerbate symptoms of cognitive decline. Our caregivers offer meaningful companionship, engaging your loved one in conversation, activities, or simply being a comforting presence. We help reduce feelings of isolation, while fostering emotional connections and promoting mental well-being.Safety Monitoring and Fall Prevention
Safety is a major concern for individuals with Alzheimer’s or Dementia, especially those prone to wandering or forgetting their surroundings. Our caregivers ensure a safe environment, providing constant supervision, assistance with mobility, and prevention of falls or injuries.Routine and Structure

We maintain consistent daily schedules, providing meals, activities, and care at the same times each day to create a sense of stability and predictability, which can help reduce anxiety and confusion.Incontinence Care
