Caring for a parent or family member with dementia is a tough job. As your loved one's disorder progresses, they will require increasing amounts of assistance in order to remain at home. Caring for someone with dementia requires patience, stamina, and flexibility. Caregiver burnout is common due to the challenging nature of caring for loved ones with memory-related illness. Thankfully, you don't have to manage your loved one's care on your own. Visiting Angels^® Savannah GA offers compassionate dementia care to take the weight off family caregivers.

Dementia care from Visiting Angels Savannah can monitor your loved one and can help to improve their overall quality of life at home. We work with families throughout Savannah, Richmond Hill, Effingham County, the surrounding communities. We have experience handling the unique needs of seniors with dementia and Alzheimer's. Our care enables seniors to avoid unwanted moves to memory care facilities.

Dementia Care & Home Support in Savannah

Dementia care from Visiting Angels Savannah supports your loved one so they can remain in their familiar home. Unlike residential memory care, we are able to focus on your loved one's specific needs. This is particularly useful if your loved one has additional health concerns such as diabetes, arthritis, congestive heart failure, stroke, and more. In-home memory care also enables your loved one to keep their comforting routines, which is important for those with memory related illness.

• Wandering prevention & monitoring of your loved one
• Offering medication reminders and monitoring
• Walking assistance, fall prevention, and safety
