Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Service
At Compassion Home Care, we support Alzheimer's and Dementia patients in several ways. Key among them is providing personalized and consistent routines in a familiar home environment. This one-on-one approach reduces anxiety and confusion, and leads to cognitive inspiration.
Our specialized support can lead to better outcomes, help preserve skills, and provide a sense of dignity for memory-loss patients. They also experience a feeling of stability by having predictable schedules for meals, medication, and activities.
One-on-one care also allows for support that is tailored to the individual's specific needs, from basic hygiene and daily living assistance, to conversation and mental stimulation. For family members, knowing that their loved one's well-being is in capable hands, is a source of satisfaction and peace of mind.

Slip and Fall Prevention
Caring for someone with Alzheimer's and Dementia can be physically and emotionally demanding. Our caregivers are trained to monitor every aspect of a patient's activity and behavior to lower the risk of injury or falls. Your loved one's safety and well-being are always at the top of our list of priorities and things to ensure.
Validation and Redirection
When a patient with dementia becomes agitated or acts out a false belief, rather than trying to correct them or argue, our caregivers validate their feelings, and then gently redirect their attention towards a calming and enjoyable activity. We look out for triggers and patterns that cause challenging behavior, so that we can adjust our routines to suit.
Cognitive Stimulation Therapy
This form of therapy uses a range of themed activities, such as puzzles, word games, and engaging in crafts, to stimulate thinking and memory. Photographs, music, and familiar objects are also used to encourage talk about pleasant past experiences. This helps your loved one to maintain self-esteem and social connection.
Compassion and Patience
Most people who suffer with dementia become agitated and experience sudden changes in behavior as the disease progresses. This can be challenging for caregivers. Our team understands the reasons that cause these mood swings. This is crucial because it allows them to deliver a superior level of care, with compassion and patience.
