COMPASSIONATE ALZHEIMER’S AND DEMENTIA CARE IN A SUPPORTIVE SETTING

Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can be overwhelming and scary for both patients and their families. Families often have important questions and concerns when caring for a loved one impacted by Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. Some questions include:

• How will the disease progress?
• What changes can I expect to see in my loved one?
• How do I know when I need to seek help in my loved one’s care?
• How do we transition him or her from home to a skilled care setting?
• How will he or she be supported emotionally?
• How will I know my loved one is safe and secure?

The affiliated teams can address these concerns and many more. The affiliated highly trained and experienced memory care professionals have the expertise, patience and compassion to understand the complex needs of dementia patients – and their loved ones.

Key to the care plan is providing meaningful activities for the patients. Every event, interaction and procedure is an opportunity to provide an enriching, connective activity. It might be an outing, a backrub, a dance or a meal.
