Alzheimer’s is a debilitating illness that destroys a person’s brain cells. Millions of people over the age of 65 are affected by this disease. The deterioration of memory followed by impaired language skills, judgment and daily activities become additionally difficult.
Caring for a person with Alzheimer’s or dementia can prove strenuous and overwhelming at times. One of the biggest challenges a caregiver will face is tackling the behaviors of the person for whom they are caring. It is difficult to see your 71 year old Mother crying for her babies, or witnessing your 93 year old Grandfather demanding that you get the birds out of the closet. Have you ever had to stop your older loved one from leaving in the middle of the night?
Millions of families like yours are facing this on a daily basis. You do not have to be alone. At Home and Hearth Caregivers, we provide dementia and Alzheimer’s assistance to families in need. It begins with the assessment of your family/loved ones in their home to make sure the environment is safe, and evaluating the care requirements to keep them happy and healthy at home.
Our caregivers have first hand experience with this affliction. Encouragement, humor, patience and understanding is our approach to assisting our senior clients and families cope with the challenges that Alzheimer’s can bring. We continually educate our Caregivers to provide them with techniques on how to better care for your loved ones.
