    There’s No Place Like Your Home

    Studies have shown that the best place for an elderly person with memory loss is in familiar surroundings. Our home care approach with Alzheimer's Care is one of encouragement and assistance can help your family member cope with the challenges of dementia. Since 1994, families like yours have trusted Home Instead Senior Care® to provide one-on-one care for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

    Our Unique Alzheimer's and Dementia CARE Program

    Our Alzheimer’s care approach of encouragement and assistance, backed by advanced research and CAREGiverSM education, can help seniors cope with the challenges of Alzheimer’s while enabling them to continue doing what they can on their own. The Home Instead Senior Care network has developed a unique training program for Alzheimer’s and other dementias that is part of its CARE: Changing Aging through Research and EducationSM program. Our CAREGivers provide the highest quality of care, changing the way people live with Alzheimer’s or other dementias. CAREGivers are prepared to provide customized care that:

    • Allows the senior to remain safe and calm at home
    • Encourages engagement and social interaction
    • Provides mind-stimulating activities
    • Provides nutritious meals
    • Manages changing behaviors
    • Honors who the senior was earlier in life
    • Supports the family

    Most importantly, CAREGivers can provide assistance with enhancing and restoring the simple pleasures of life, such as a walk in the park, a ride in the car to get ice cream or spending time in the garden. Proven to maximize abilities and independence, such elder care activities remain one of the best treatments for the disease.
