For Houston, TX 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 Houston 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
- Vascular 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.

In-home memory care FAQs
Yes. Dementia is one of the complex care needs the Houston team has experience supporting.
Care is based on the person rather than treating everyone living with dementia the same way. A customized plan may include companionship, personal care, meals, familiar routines, activities, supervision, and other non-medical assistance. As cognitive abilities change, the amount and type of support can change too.
Receiving support at home allows the person to remain surrounded by familiar routines and belongings while getting additional one-on-one assistance.
A Care Pro can help with everyday routines that have become difficult while also giving a spouse or adult child relief from some hands-on caregiving responsibilities. The amount of support can grow as memory loss progresses rather than requiring a family to make one permanent decision at the beginning.
Earlier needs may center on companionship, meals, reminders, activities, and maintaining familiar routines. As dementia progresses, someone may need more assistance with personal care, mobility, supervision, or nighttime routines.
Home Instead Houston can review the customized care plan as those changes occur. With experience supporting people living with dementia and a team of approximately 157 Care Pros, the office can focus on what assistance is appropriate for the person’s current stage and daily life.
Yes. A Care Pro can stay with the person living with dementia while a spouse or adult child works, runs errands, attends appointments, rests, or spends time with other family members.
During that time, the Care Pro follows the established care plan and maintains familiar routines. Respite can be incorporated into ongoing dementia support rather than waiting until the family caregiver reaches a crisis.
Cost depends on the level and frequency of support. Someone needing several companionship visits each week will have a different care plan from someone needing extensive personal care, supervision, overnight help, or 24-hour support.
Home Instead Houston can develop a customized plan after learning about the individual’s needs. Families can also use the Cost of Care resource for broader planning information.
