Alzheimer's Dementia
If you have a loved one who suffers from Alzheimer's Disease or dementia, then you know how devastating it can be on all your lives. Sadly, approximately 5 million Americans are afflicted with Alzheimer's and those around them struggle daily to deal with the enormity of it all. That's why Synergy HomeCare plays such a significant role in their lives, as our personal, homemaking and companionship services provide just the kind of help and relief necessary for improved quality of life.
Alzheimer's affects so many aspects of a person's life, from thinking and memory to language and behavior. That said, the disease affects no two people the same way, meaning each person requires a different approach to care. In other words, customization is key, and that is precisely what we provide, starting with a Free Home Assessment with a Synergy HomeCare representative.
Considering how much Alzheimer's can affect all aspects of someone's life, the services we provide are pretty broad, including:
- Personal hygiene assistance
- Social interaction and companionship
- Wake up and bedtime routines
- Meal planning and preparation
- Creating and maintaining a safe environment
- Housekeeping
- Running errands
- Medication reminders
- Planning safe, mind-stimulating activities
- And more
All too often, the primary caregivers of those suffering with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia do not have the opportunity to take time for themselves. As a result, their own health suffers – mentally, emotionally and physically. To prevent that from happening, we offer respite care services to primary caregivers so that they can spend quality time taking care of their own interests and needs.
