Alzheimer’s disease consists of irregular changes that affect the human brain and directly impact an individual’s memory, as well as other mental abilities. First and foremost, the top priority is keeping the individual affected by Alzheimer’s safe.

Caregivers will typically experience less stress with such training and this goes a long way when providing Alzheimer’s care in Mount Vernon.
Individualized Dementia Care Services for Seniors in Mount Vernon, IA
Most families are reluctant at the idea of another person taking care of their loved one with dementia. This is a normal reaction because the family does not want to let go of their loved one, even though caring for them can be a huge burden and can negatively impact the family’s health. After receiving some education about dementia care services, most Mount Vernon families are much more open to the idea of letting a qualified dementia caregiver care for their loved one. Aside from lessening the stress on behalf of the family, a dementia caregiver can also provide the utmost care during a critical time.
Companionship Care:
Most seniors enjoy visits from a new friend and helping them accomplish tasks and enjoy favorite activities is good for seniors' health. We can play games, visit neighbors, watch movies or plan activities, whatever is most helpful for the senior and their family.
Home Helper Services​:
Receiving help with home tasks that are more difficult for seniors is often crucial to allowing seniors to continue to live in their home.

Home Helper services include cleaning, laundry, shopping, running errands and helping however we can.
