Dementia In-Home Care
Caring for a family member living with a memory disorder is both rewarding and challenging. With limited help at home, caring for a family member with a memory impairment may sometimes be frustrating. Personal care services offered by Accountable Home Care can help create a safe environment. . If you or a loved one can benefit from additional care support at home, Accountable Home Care is here to help. Allow our patient care coordinator to assist you in creating a comprehensive care plan designed for cognitive engagement, companionship and supportive activities. A licensed caregiver referred by Accountable Home Care provides respite care, activities, companionship and personal care for proper hygiene. Incorporating a certified nursing assistant (CNA) to provide non-medical supportive care for an individual at home promotes quality of life and helps to maintain a person’s dignity.
Living with Alzheimer’s Care, Parkinson’s disease and Other Memory Impairments
As memory problems progress and symptoms worsen, dementia can often make daily tasks such as bathing and self-care such as personal grooming more difficult. Additional care support from a licensed caregiver referred by Accountable Home Care allows much needed emotional and physical support while maintaining privacy in a familiar, home environment.
According to the Alzheimer’s Association, at least two of the following mental functions must be significantly impaired to be considered dementia:
- Memory
- Communication and language
- Ability to focus and pay attention
- Reasoning and judgement
- Visual perception
Hourly Care Offering Companionship, Emotional Support and Safety
Most common request is for a licensed caregiver(licensed nursing assistant or a home health aide) who can engage, socialize and help keep routine while they are in their home. Taking walks together, working on puzzles and chores throughout the house are just a few of the common tasks families request.
