How Memory Care at Home from Visiting Angels Central Coast Helps Seniors in Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties
Oftentimes, seniors living with dementia or Alzheimer’s or who have recently suffered a stroke or TBI suffer incredible memory loss caused by severe changes in the makeup of the brain. This leads to difficulty processing information, concentrating, and even having scary hallucinations. The disorientation resulting from these conditions can also manifest itself in feelings of depression and confusion, to the point of agitation. As a result, seniors living with memory-related conditions have trouble with aging in place because they either struggle with remembering or completing everyday tasks. However, relocating to an assisted living facility isn't always the right option, as having to get adjusted to new and unfamiliar surroundings can make your loved one feel upset and worsen their quality of life. Therefore, providing senior care at home is typically the most beneficial if your loved one is living with a condition that impacts their memory and cognition.
This is why these seniors need professional memory care at home. At Visiting Angels Central Coast, we make it a point to provide flexible care plans that are completely customizable and reflect the level of care that the individual senior needs. Our care coordinators will work with you to create a care plan that perfectly fits your loved one's needs and schedule, help them pick the ideal caregiver who will be able to provide the level of in-home care they need without interfering with their everyday routine and keep in regular contact with you so you always know your loved one is in good hands.
