Seniors who are diagnosed with dementia typically require external support in order to maintain their well-being. At Visiting Angels^® Catawba Valley, we offer in-home dementia care services that enable seniors in Hickory to age in place while managing the specific symptoms and risks that come with dementia. Our specialized program for elderly adults with dementia includes assistance with a wide range of daily activities and respite care for overwhelmed family caregivers.

About Our Dementia Care in Hickory

When a loved one is diagnosed with dementia, you may worry the only way to accommodate their care needs is to place them in a nursing home or memory care center. Fortunately there’s another option. Seniors with early-, mid-, and late-stage dementia can benefit from remaining in the familiar surroundings of their own homes when they have a professional in-home caregiver.

Dementia care differs from other types of senior care in many ways. That’s why we offer basic dementia training for all of our care providers in Hickory, giving them the opportunity to equip themselves with up-to-date information regarding proper care protocol. We’ve even partnered with leading dementia specialists to design a series of informative dementia certification programs.

Our caregivers from Visiting Angels Catawba Valley are ready to provide support with a broad range of needs in order to ensure elderly adults receive the personalized care they require to age in place safely and comfortably. Here are just a few of the services that may be included as part of your loved one’s tailor-made care plan:

• Monitoring to prevent wandering
• Basic housekeeping help
• Transportation assistance
• Mobility support
• Bathing and grooming assistance
• Medication and appointment reminders
• Planning and preparation of meals
