Visiting Angels Cookeville is a trusted resource for dementia care because we are dedicated to improving the quality of life for seniors who are living with dementia. Our caregivers are invested in the local senior community and strive to treat clients with dignity and respect, even when providing care which is personal in nature.

Dementia Care at Home

For seniors who are living with the affects of dementia, their independence is often questioned. Well meaning family members may assume they are better off in a nursing facility. If your loved one is resistant to leaving their treasured home, there is another option available. Visiting Angels Cookeville can provide your loved one with professional dementia care in the comfort of their own home. When your loved one receives one-on-one dementia support they will benefit in several ways. These include the ability to remain among familiar and comforting surroundings, full control of the care schedule, and building a relationship with a caregiver of your choice.

Support for a Range of Care Needs

Because dementia is a progressive illness, and the needs of individuals can vary greatly, Visiting Angels Cookeville offers customized dementia care services. We are also aware that many seniors have other health concerns which coincide with their dementia. Our personalized care allows us to meet the needs of seniors who are also dealing with the affects of diabetes, arthritis, congestive heart failure, stroke, limited mobility, and more. Custom dementia care from Visiting Angels Cookeville is flexible enough to meet your loved one's non-medical home care needs, whatever they may be.
