How Our Alzheimer's Care Helps Local Seniors Age in Place
Living independently with Alzheimer's can be nearly impossible. Confusion, disorientation, and mental and physical changes can make daily life difficult. Our Alzheimer's care from Visiting Angels Cape Cod is designed to support seniors as they continue to age in place and navigate the changes associated with the disease.
Here are some of the services we provide:
- Light housekeeping and laundry assistance
- Meal planning and preparation
- Friendly companionship
- Medication reminders
- Running errands and grocery shopping
- Mobility assistance
- Wandering and fall prevention
- Transportation to medical appointments
Another way we support our clients is by providing assistance during times of confusion, agitation, or disorientation. Our caregivers are able to use various calming techniques and deal with these difficult situations. Some creative ways we are able to help our clients include going for daily walks, listening to music, playing games, and talking about memories.
Alzheimer's affects each individual differently. To ensure your loved one is receiving the care they need, we will create a personalized care plan for them. During the initial consultation, we will discuss your loved one's needs. Our home care services can be combined in a way that allows your loved one to live safely and comfortably at home.
The personalized nature of our care also makes it easy to change as needed. As Alzheimer's progresses, your loved one may require more care and longer caregiver visits. We are happy to make these changes at any time. Our caregivers monitor their clients for any changes that may indicate a need for additional care. We are happy to work with you to ensure your loved one's care plan meets their needs at all times.
Along with personalized care plans comes flexible scheduling. You can rest assured your loved one will receive care whenever it is needed. Our caregivers boast 24/7 availability. This includes evenings, weekends, and holidays as well. To address your loved one's needs, we can create either a part-time or full-time schedule of visits for them. Our caregivers are also able to provide respite care to assist family caregivers who need a break from their duties.
Choose Your Alzheimer’s Care Provider
Visiting Angels Cape Cod understands that it’s not always easy to introduce a home care provider to an aging loved one. You may also have reservations about allowing a non-family member to provide assistance. Our clients will tell you that bringing a caregiver into your home is easier than you might think.
We involve our clients in the caregiver selection process to create successful partnerships. We gather detailed information about your loved one during their initial consultation. This information helps us select a caregiver who closely matches their needs, schedule requirements, and personality. We also allow our clients to request a new caregiver pairing through our Select Your Caregiver® program. This way, Alzheimer’s care from Visiting Angels Cape Cod gives you control during a time when so much is outside your command.
