Montessori isn’t normally associated with senior care. Sherman Oaks, CA families may have their young children in a Montessori program, but few consider the benefits of the Montessori method when providing help for seniors with dementia.

The Montessori method is all about identifying the needs of the individual, and providing them with a prepared environment and stimulations or prompts that feed those needs. In children, this means opening up their minds to wonder and learning. But when looking for “dementia care services near me” Sherman Oaks, CA could consider the benefits of a Montessori-esque approach to dementia care.

And among the things Montessori emphasizes is a personal, customized approach, which is also very important in elder care. Sherman Oaks, CA has the best senior home caregivers in the trained, licensed, bonded, and compassionate CAREGivers of Homeinstead.

Homeinstead’s CAREGivers will spend time getting to know your loved one, working with you and them to determine what they need, what helps them have a better quality of life, and what inspires happiness in them.

Whether your and your loved one’s home care assistance needs are senior day care options, private respite care for seniors, or a 24-hour caregiver, Sherman Oaks, CA residents can rely on Homeinstead to provide the best customized plan for your and your loved one’s needs.

And within that care, the Homeinstead CAREGiver can take proactive steps to provide just what is needed. So if your loved one requires dementia elderly care, or help for seniors with Alzheimers, our CAREGivers would be able to observe what sorts of things are needed, and provide them.

For instance, they could help to organize the home to stimulate the mind. They could provide simple tasks, like flower arranging, that stimulate the mind, keep the hands active, and provide a pleasing task to accomplish. They could organize and help to carry out excursions to locations that bring back happy memories. They might play simple games that help to keep the mind sharp. They could do all manner of thing to provide Alzheimers senior care.
