About Our Dementia Care in Pittsburgh

It’s common for family caregivers to step in to offer a helping hand when a loved one is diagnosed with dementia. However, there will likely come a point when you can no longer balance your loved one’s increasing needs with the other priorities in your life. You may even begin to consider moving them to a memory care center or assisted living facility.

Our at-home care services make it possible for you to avoid caregiver burnout without putting your loved one through a traumatic move away from his or her familiar home environment. We’re prepared to provide assistance with a range of day-to-day tasks and understand the unique challenges that dementia presents.

We have even partnered with leading dementia specialists to create a collection of dementia care certification programs. All our care providers at Visiting Angels Pittsburgh have the opportunity to participate in this basic training, and many are also certified in advanced care protocol.

From support with personal care routines to compassionate companionship and respite care for overworked family caregivers, we offer comprehensive, non-medical services that make aging in place possible. Your loved one’s personalized care plan could include services such as the following:

• Monitoring and wandering prevention
• Medication reminders
• Planning and preparing healthy meals
• Transportation to appointments
• Help with walking and mobility
• Dignified support with bathing and grooming
• Basic housekeeping and homemaking tasks
