Dementia Care in Fort Wayne

Whether your parent or loved one has been newly diagnosed with dementia or is in the late stages, you may be struggling with uncertainty concerning their happiness, safety, and well-being. Know that you are not alone. Visiting Angels® Fort Wayne offers professional, in-home dementia care for seniors throughout Huntington, Fort Wayne, Columbia City, Bluffton, IN, and the surrounding areas. Our caregivers are dedicated to providing experienced and compassionate care services to help your loved one and your family cope with this challenging time.

Why Choose In-Home Dementia Care

A dementia diagnosis brings many changes for your loved one and can threaten their ability to continue living independently on their own home. Nursing homes are often considered the next step, but they can be confusing, alienating, and upsetting for an aging parent with dementia. Visiting Angels Fort Wayne brings professional-quality dementia care into the homes of seniors throughout the Fort Wayne, IN area, delaying and often preventing the need for nursing home care.

Dementia Care with Visiting Angels Fort Wayne

At Visiting Angels Fort Wayne, our dementia care services focus on improving and maintaining your loved one’s quality of life. Our services can provide physical as well as emotional assistance, including:

  • Reminders to take medication, eat regularly, and drink fluids
  • Transportation to appointments, errands, and shopping
  • Companionship and friendly conversation
  • Light housekeeping chores, such as laundry, making beds, and vacuuming
  • Assistance with bathing and dressing

Every dementia care plan at Visiting Angels Fort Wayne starts with an initial no-cost consultation. We'll come to your home to meet with your loved one and family to discuss the memory care services we provide, and what kind of assistance your loved one could benefit from. From there, we can customize a plan specific to your loved one’s needs, and use our Select Your Caregiver® program to ensure your loved one is matched to the caregiver that complements their needs and schedule.

At Visiting Angels Fort Wayne, all our dementia care providers are qualified, experienced professionals who approach dementia care with compassion and have a genuine enthusiasm for elder care. We can help your parent or loved one cope with the confusion that often comes with dementia and memory disorders by providing individualized care whenever it's needed.

Our Dementia Home Care is Progressive

Seniors who are diagnosed with dementia can expect to have different care needs as the disorder progresses through its various stages. When you know your loved one's future comfort and safety depend on high-quality care that accommodates their needs as they change, getting started with dementia home care from Visiting Angels Fort Wayne can give you peace of mind.

Our memory care program offers flexible services that allow elderly adults to benefit from different levels of assistance as they encounter new needs and circumstances related to progressive dementia. If you're wondering how our home care services will adapt to your loved one's needs as they progress, here's a brief look at what to expect with each stage of dementia:

Early Stage Care 

If a memory disorder is diagnosed early, seniors may find that they are able to live relatively independently for quite some time. However, they may require reminders here and there, help with homemaking, and a consistent source of socialization if they don't regularly get out and about. A caregiver from our team can offer these basic forms of assistance while building a trust-based relationship with your loved one that lays the foundation for their future care.

Middle Stage Care

During the middle stages of dementia, seniors often experience a greater need for support in a number of areas. For instance, they may find they have increasingly restricted mobility and problems with coordination and balance. They may also undergo personality changes, mood swings, emotional outbursts, and memory lapses.

A dementia care provider can offer physical support that enables seniors to maintain their well-being and complete personal care routines, medication reminders, and emotional support during difficult and confusing moments.

Late Stage Care

As dementia continues its progression, it's common for seniors to require around-the-clock care and assistance with even the most basic of tasks, such as eating. Our caregivers provide essential supervision and monitoring that helps seniors stay safe, support with completing everyday activities like eating and using the toilet, and mobility assistance to minimize fall risks.
