Alzheimer’s is a progressive illness that, first of all, affects one’s memory, thinking ability, and normal behavior. Not only does Alzheimer’s affect seniors, but it seriously impinges on the family of a patient, making the general daily tasks hard to control. We at ComForCare of Castro Valley understand all these challenges a little better inside and hence can assure you that the needed family support will be there with caregiving services to cater to comfort in independent living.
Comprehensive In-Home Care Services
ComForCare professionals are specifically trained to care for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and support them through the different stages of the disease. We promote independence by creating a safe environment that is supportive of them. Our services include:
- Personal Care Assistance: The care given is for bathing, dressing, grooming, and hygiene care.
- Medication Management: Ensuring that medications are taken on time and at the right dosage.
- Meal Preparation And Nutrition: Provide balanced meals, catering for dietary needs.
- Support Mobility And Safety: able to walk, transfer, and not fall.
- Activities: Encourage mental stimulation with a variety of activities that the person would be interested in, such as working on a puzzle, music, or arts and crafts activity.
Benefits of In-Home Alzheimer Care
In-home care may be a highly viable option for a senior and the family members concerned because:
- Familiar Environment: Allowing seniors to stay in their homes better helps them feel more comfortable, reducing confusion and anxiety.
- Personalized Care: We provide tailor-made services that are designed according to the specific needs of a person and not according to the ‘one-size-fits-all’ model.
- Family Involvement: We work in close liaison with relatives and inform them by making decisions about their care.
- Improvement in the Quality of Life: Our care, since it encompasses physical and emotional or mental health, will bring about great improvement in the quality of their lives.
Supporting Families Along the Way
Alzheimer’s is not just a patient’s disease; it involves the whole family. Besides working and other personal responsibilities, the demands put on caregivers may be insurmountable at times. We also support the families through respite care aimed at relieving the primary caregiver. In so doing, we hope that we lighten the burden enough to a point whereby the family can focus on creating some quality time with their loved ones.
