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.

In-home memory care FAQs
Sometimes it requires creativity with very ordinary tasks.
One local client repeatedly declined a bath because he believed he had already taken one. His Care Pro noticed there wasn’t any laundry and suggested taking a bath so they would have clothes to wash. That approach made sense to him, and he agreed.
A typical visit might also include breakfast, medication reminders, bathing, changing clothes, updating dates on whiteboards, preparing lunch for later, and leaving written notes to help with direction.
Our Care Pros may change the approach rather than turning an everyday task into a confrontation.
The bathing example from one Scottsbluff Home Instead client shows how that can work. Instead of repeatedly insisting that he needed a bath, his Care Pro found a practical reason that made sense to him—creating laundry by changing his clothes after bathing.
That kind of creativity can help a person move through everyday routines with less frustration.
For some of our clients living with memory loss, a Care Pro may update the date on a whiteboard or leave written notes that provide direction later in the day.
These simple supports can be incorporated alongside breakfast, medication reminders, bathing, clothing changes, and preparing a meal for later.
The exact routine depends on the individual. Home Instead Scottsbluff Care Pros adapt everyday support around what helps that particular client navigate the day.
Yes. Our local team sees many families who need respite while caring for a loved one living with Alzheimer’s disease.
During respite, the Care Pro focuses on the client’s needs while the spouse or other family caregiver is away. That can include toileting, bathing, meals, and other everyday assistance.
This allows the family caregiver to run errands or handle other responsibilities while their loved one continues receiving support at home.
Yes. Our Scottsbluff team provides dementia support as well as respite and 24-hour care.
The appropriate schedule depends on the individual’s needs and available staffing. For someone requiring extensive assistance, our 24/7 on-call team also provides local support when unexpected staffing issues occur.
