Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care

Dignified PCA assistance tailored to cognitive and memory challenges.

Caring for a loved one with Dementia or Alzheimer’s can be overwhelming, especially as memory, mood, and behavior begin to change. Our Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care services provide calm, predictable in-home support so your loved one can remain safe, comfortable, and respected—right where they feel most at ease: at home.

What Is Dementia & Alzheimer’s?

Dementia is a general term that describes a decline in memory, thinking, and problem-solving severe enough to affect daily life. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia and often begins with subtle memory loss, difficulty finding words, and changes in judgment or behavior.

As dementia progresses, many people need help with:

Remembering medications and appointments
Bathing, dressing, and grooming
Preparing meals and eating regularly
Staying safe at home and avoiding wandering
Managing changes in mood, sleep, and behavior

Our caregivers are trained to support these challenges with patience, respect, and consistency.

How We Support Your Loved One at Home

Personalized Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care Includes:

Gentle personal care: Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and incontinence care while protecting dignity and privacy.
Medication reminders (non-medical): Cueing and reminders at the right time so medications are taken as prescribed (no medication administration).
Structured daily routines: We help create a predictable schedule for waking, meals, hygiene, rest, and activities to reduce confusion and agitation.
Companionship & meaningful activities: Conversation, music, simple games, reminiscing, and other activities adapted to your loved one’s abilities to support connection and joy.
Supervision & safety monitoring: Oversight to reduce fall risk, wandering, and household hazards, with prompt reporting of any changes in behavior, mobility, or health to the family.
Support with meals & hydration: Help planning, preparing, and encouraging nutritious meals and fluids, including positive prompts and extra time during meals.
Transportation & appointment support: Escort to medical visits, adult day programs, and community activities, as appropriate.

Compassionate Care for Changing Behaviors

Dementia and Alzheimer’s can bring changes such as confusion, repetition, wandering, sleep problems, mood swings, or agitation.

Our caregivers are trained to:

Use calm, simple communication – speaking slowly, using short sentences, and allowing time for your loved one to respond.
Validate feelings instead of arguing facts – we focus on reassurance and comfort instead of correcting or confronting.
Redirect with empathy - using favorite topics, music, snacks, or activities to gently shift focus during moments of distress.
Observe and report changes, documenting new or worsening behaviors so you can discuss them with your healthcare provider.

The goal is to reduce fear and frustration, for both your loved one and your family, and to preserve dignity at every stage.
