What to Expect After Diagnosis

At Visiting Angels^® Fayetteville, we provide loving and attentive Alzheimer's care for Peachetree City area seniors. Our service is dedicated to keeping those with the disorder safe and comfortable in their own homes. We work closely with local families to set up customized care plans and help local seniors avoid the move to a care facility.

As part of our ongoing support, we'd also like to help the recently diagnosed to understand what lies ahead. The early stages of the disorder can often bring minimal effects. You may find yourself in moments of confusion and forgetfulness, but overall, you should be able to maintain some autonomy. However, it is still very helpful to have a person around you can trust. 

As things progress to the middle stages of Alzheimer's, you will experience moderate dementia. You may experience changes in your mental capacity from one moment to the next, which is why it's so critical to have a family or professional caregiver around. Everyday tasks will become more difficult, and some will become completely impossible. For this reason, it's important for each senior to get specific care that adjusts to their needs. 

During late-stage Alzheimer's, seniors need to have a caregiver present at all times. This will not only help to keep you safe and reduce your confusion, but most importantly, it will allow you to continue living in your own home. 

Living at home is one of the best ways to minimize the confusion and stress of Alzheimer's. Other ways to slow the progress of mental decline include: eating a healthy diet, getting consistent exercise, and keeping your mind active.
