For Oak Park, IL families, Alzheimer’s & dementia support starts at home.

The familiarity of home can make all the difference for older adults dealing with memory loss. Maintaining routines, relationships, and structure can not only ease confusion, reduce anxiety, and support memory, but aging at home can also help support independence and dignity.

With a training program recognized by the Alzheimer’s Association, Home Instead Chicago is here to help you navigate the journey with confidence and compassion.

We have experience with:

Alzheimer’s Disease
Frontotemporal Dementia
Lewy Body Dementia
Mild Cognitive Impairment
Parkinson’s Disease Dementia

Advancing how we care for those with memory loss.

While medical research works towards treatments for memory issues like Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, there have also been advances in how we care for those living with memory loss. With guidance from Dr. Lakelyn Hogan-Eichenberger, Home Instead’s on-staff gerontologist, we’ve developed a person-centered approach to memory support, uniquely designed to:

Care for the whole person.
Honor your loved one’s life before their cognitive decline.
Help them continue to enjoy activities and hobbies they love.
Compassionately respond to cognitive and behavioral symptoms.
Help enhance safety in the home environment.
Review and adjust care plans as needs change.

Compassionate care begins with a thoughtful care plan.

Over the years, one thing has been clear: no two people experience memory loss the same way. That’s why we take the time to understand your loved one’s needs, routines, and story—so we can create an in-home memory care plan that truly fits your family.

Fall prevention in older homes, transportation to appointments, mobility support, and help after hospitalization or rehabilitation. Families can share what the older adult enjoys, avoids, or finds reassuring so the approach feels respectful rather than rushed.

Rush Oak Park Hospital, local rehabilitation facilities, senior living communities, and community education programs. Respite, companionship, and regular visits can give a family caregiver time to work, rest, attend an appointment, or stay connected to the relationship beyond caregiving tasks.

The goal is not to change the person living with memory loss. It is to support familiar routines, dignity, and meaningful connection at home.
