Once a loved one receives a dementia diagnosis, if they have children or other family living close by, they may decide that it would be best to keep their caregiving within the family. However, although it may be manageable to look after a loved one with early-stage dementia, the later stages are quite difficult for loved ones to watch. At the same time, they may not be able to provide the specialized sort of non-medical memory care that their loved one needs. At that point, many families decide that their loved one has no option but to move to a nursing home or assisted living facility. They couldn't, however, be more wrong. The fact is that with in-home care, your loved one can remain in the comfort of their own home for the rest of their life. Avoiding the stress of moving can have a positive impact on their health.
