The Best Alzheimer’s Home Care in West Palm Beach
Home care is an important function for those with dementia.
During the process of Alzheimer’s type dementia, the brain deteriorates slowly. In that time the sufferer undergoes stages of personality and motor changes.
Each stage must be should be noted and changes to the plan of care should be implemented.
There are specific questions to ask your caregiver before they provide your loved one with the Alzheimer’s care that they need.
The caregivers that we would assign to you are ones that are specifically experienced in Alzheimer’s care.
Types of Comfort Care We Provide:
- Companion Services: Comforting Alzheimer’s and Dementia care takes care of the physical health and the mental/emotional health. Companionship will not only keep your loved one safe by observing changes and improvements, but will help to extend and enhance their life through encouraging their interests and listening to them. Companionship does wonders for releasing the good chemicals in the human brain. We all need it and that’s especially true for those needing dementia care.
- Homemaker and Personal Care Services: As dementia progresses your loved one’s motor skill will gradually diminish. That means everyday tasks called ADL’s will become difficult to impossible. A caregiver will offer personal care and housekeeping services.
How Our In-Home Alzheimer's Care Can Help
Comforting in-home care services for dementia patients are different than that of cancer and other end-of-life or hospice services.
Sometimes both types must come together but in the case of having to deal with dementia as a lone diagnosis, in-home care is common.
We offer both companion and personal care at-home services.
