How In-Home Dementia Care Helps Seniors in Sunnyvale, CA and Surrounding Areas

If you have a loved one who has been diagnosed with dementia, you may already be familiar with the amount of care they require. Because dementia is a progressive condition, symptoms can become more severe over time, meaning that your senior loved one will need increasing amounts of assistance to remain safe. If you are trying to support their desire to age in place while living with dementia, you may find yourself spending more and more time helping out and may not even fully be prepared to provide the level of care they need.

It is often assumed residential memory care is the only option for seniors with Alzheimer's or dementia. However, receiving care at home actually has several advantages over residential assistance. Some of these benefits include being able to receive one-on-one assistance from a professional who's trained to provide care for seniors living with dementia, allowing family members to stay involved in a loved one's care strategy, and generally being less expensive than moving to a memory care facility. But one of the biggest advantages of in-home care is allowing seniors to get the support they need in familiar surroundings. Having to relocate to new surroundings can make seniors feel upset or angry, especially if they're living with a condition like dementia that makes it harder for them to remember new places and names. When seniors choose in-home dementia care, they can get the help they need with independent living and managing dementia symptoms while remaining in the home they've known and loved for years.
