Traveling with a Loved One Who Has Dementia
For seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's, even simple tasks can become impossible for them to complete. Traveling with a senior that has memory loss can pose its own particular set of challenges. It requires a lot of extra planning and care which, without dementia care, can be just too overwhelming. Your loved one’s caregiver can help you think it all through and map out a plan to help everything run smoothly.
Some things to bear in mind when traveling with a relative needing specialized memory care are:
- Phoning ahead to let your accommodations know if you have any special needs
Insuring you bring along enough of their medications to last for the whole trip- Having copies of important documents and emergency numbers within easy reach
- Trying as often as possible to choose destinations familiar to your loved one
- Leaving a detailed itinerary of your travel plans with emergency contacts back home
- Consulting with their doctor prior to the trip to see if they have any additional advice
Whether they're at home or on the road, making sure your loved one is getting the care they need is essential. At Visiting Angels of Aiken, we understand that dementia doesn't take days off, so we keep our caregivers available 365 days a year.
