When a parent receives an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, its impact touches the whole family. Many families start to wonder how they will care for their loved one. For many families, the only option seems to be assisted living or nursing home care. Other families consider becoming – or already are – the main caregiver for their loved one with Alzheimer’s. While this can be a rewarding experience, it often becomes too physically and emotionally demanding to do alone. At Visiting Angels Waco, we know there are other options. Our Alzheimer’s care services can provide the care and assistance you and your loved one need.  

We offer specialized non-medical Alzheimer’s care that allows your parent to remain in the comfort and familiar surroundings of their own home. Our dedicated, compassionate caregivers can take the weight of your parent’s care off your shoulders so that you can enjoy the time you spend with them. 

Personalized Alzheimer’s Care Services

When you call our Waco office, we’ll start by meeting with you to discuss the wide range of Alzheimer’s care services we offer. After discussing your loved one’s needs, preferences, routines, and wellness concerns, we’ll build a personalized plan and schedule for your parent’s care.

Our Alzheimer’s care services offer assistance with a wide variety of needs. Some of the most frequent services we provide include:

• Bathing and dressing assistance
• Light housekeeping
• Planning and cooking nutritious meals
• Medication reminders
• Fluid intake reminders
• Help running errands
• Companionship

Our Alzheimer’s Care Helps Care for You, Too

Caring for a family member with Alzheimer’s is emotionally and physically demanding. Even the most devoted caregivers need a break when care becomes overwhelming. That’s another service we offer at Visiting Angels Waco. When you need a break, we can adjust our schedule so you can get it. We understand how difficult it can be to provide care 24/7. That’s why it’s important that you take care of yourself – so when you’re with your parent, you can give them the love and care they need.
