Living with Dementia and Alzheimer's

Don't go it alone. If your loved one is living with the effects of Alzheimer's, or other forms of dementia, it can take a tremendous toll on your own physical and emotional well‑being. We understand the unique challenges that Alzheimer's, and other forms of dementia present to family caregivers, and their loved ones. The professional caregivers we send to our clients homes are patient, respectful, and compassionate. An in‑home caregiver or senior helper from A Better Living Home Care will be able to provide care and assistance through all stages of Alzheimer's and dementia as an hourly or live‑in companion.

In fact, very few individuals ever need to be placed in a facility environment as long as there is a qualified caregiver providing essential in home care. Most people mistakenly think that one‑on‑one care is too expensive, when it actually is a very cost effective alternative to facility based care (Cost Comparison of In Home Care & Assisted Living Facilities).

When Does Someone with Dementia or Alzheimer's Need In‑Home Care?

• Cognitive Impairment: If an individual has dementia, memory impairment, or is disoriented to the degree that they pose a risk to themselves or others, they need in home supervision to ensure their safety. When minimal personal care and mobility assistance is required, an available spouse, family member, or friend may supervise their safety and provide necessary prompting and assistance.
  
  
• When a spouse, family member, or friend is unable to be onsite, or the care needs are significant, consider obtaining the services of a qualified professional caregiver.
  
  
• Many families have trouble accepting that their loved one needs assistance when the cognitive impairment appears to be mild, and they are otherwise in excellent physical condition. This can be an accident waiting to happen. In an emergency, such as a fire from a stove burner that was left on, or a cigarette that was not extinguished, would they know to call the fire department, and exit the home to a safe location?
  
  
• If a policy holder is cognitively impaired, Long Term Care Insurance companies require no physical disability for the holders to qualify for benefits. If the insurance companies think they need care‑and are willing to pay for it‑you should seriously consider in home care.
