Seniors with dementia experience a variety of symptoms including memory loss and difficulty with daily activities such as taking a shower or paying bills. They may become frustrated with themselves and others because they cannot do the things they used to do. Family members and friends may feel as though their loved one needs more help than they can provide. This is where customized in-home caregiving services provided by ComForCare of Tri-Valley will help to meet the needs of the senior, also benefiting those who care for them.
Our proprietary program, DementiaWise®, improves the lives of people with dementia while providing assistance and education for the family. Caregivers are trained to be aware of behavioral triggers and respond with redirection techniques, which help to manage dementia challenges.
A significant benefit of in-home care is that the senior remains comfortable in their own home versus going to a nursing home or other care facility. ComForCare of Tri-Valley in-home caregivers create a custom plan based on each individual’s unique needs. In addition, senior clients enjoy purposeful activities such playing cards or other games, listening to music, visiting local parks, and drawing and painting. In-home care allows the senior to continue independent living.
ComForCare of Tri-Valley provides gentle, personalized care for dementia patients including:
- Self-care assistance such as bathing
- Shopping and other errands
- Preparation of healthy meals
- Cognitive exercises such as games and puzzles
- Housekeeping assistance
- Safety awareness and supervision
In-home dementia caregivers have specialized training and ensure your loved one is treated with compassion and respect. We carefully align caregivers with seniors based on their characteristics, histories, and social preferences. Caregivers are trained to work with senior client’s specific requirements and requests. Our caregivers are insured and bonded, and must pass a comprehensive hiring screening, as well as having ongoing care-training and evaluations during their tenure with ComForCare of Tri-Valley.
In closing, whether needed 24/7 or for a few hours, ComForCare of Tri-Valley’s in-home care alleviates stress for the senior and their family. In-home caregiving services for seniors with dementia are tailored to each person’s needs. The senior and their families will have a better quality of life knowing that a skilled and loving caregiver is involved.
