Alzheimer’s Care Tips for Safe Travels

Some senior adults living in Fond du Lac who are in an Alzheimer's care program can still enjoy travel, especially if they are in the earlier stages of dementia. However, many individuals with Alzheimer's find travel to be a stressful, overwhelming experience. It’s critical that you consider your loved one’s condition before taking them on a trip. After making the decision to travel with your loved one, take a look at the following Alzheimer’s care travel tips from our professional Alzheimer’s care providers at Visiting Angels Fond du Lac:

  • Help your loved one maintain a routine. Do your best not to stray from the routine that your loved one enjoys at home. The easiest way to do this is to build your travel itinerary around this routine, and be sure to plan in extra buffer time in case you run into any unexpected incidents.
  • Go with comfort when possible. When selecting your accommodation and transportation options, choose the ones that will pose the least stress and keep your loved one as comfortable as possible.
  • Get in touch with your airline and hotel. Call your hotel in advance to alert them that you may need a helping hand on arrival. In addition, if you’re catching a flight, inquire about any available escort services that the airline may have to make sure that your time at the airport goes smoothly.
  • Bring your loved one’s important documents. Make copies of documents related to your loved one’s Alzheimer’s care. This includes contact information for your loved one’s physicians in Fond du Lac, an up-to-date medical history, a list of your loved one’s medications, and relevant legal paperwork.
