Unlike other types of care, dementia care requires support with specific symptoms and challenges. At Visiting Angels^® Gulf Shores, we understand the unique nature of dementia care and are prepared to provide supportive at-home services for seniors in Foley, Yupon, Swift, Gulf Shores, and nearby towns. We can help those with early-, mid-, or late-stage dementia age in place through compassionate care that promotes their quality of life and provides much-needed respite for overwhelmed family caregivers.

More About Our At-Home Dementia Care in Foley

When an elderly adult is diagnosed with dementia, they often look to friends, family members, and familiar surroundings for support. As their memory disorder progresses, they typically need more assistance to maintain their safety and well-being.

If you’re caring for a loved one with dementia, you may be unsure of how you can provide the increasingly intensive support they need. At some point, you may even look into placing them in a memory care facility or assisted living center.

However, at-home dementia care is also an option to consider. Our professional care providers in the Foley area offer specialized assistance designed specifically to help elderly adults with dementia age in place for as long as possible. In addition to remaining in a familiar environment, your loved one can also maintain the independence of their preferred schedule.

Visiting Angels has enlisted the expertise of leading dementia specialists in the development of dementia care certification programs for our caregiving team in Foley. Each of our caregivers has access to this basic certification, and many make the decision to continue with advanced certification in this area.

Through our at-home services, we provide assistance with a variety of basic activities and daily routines such as:

• Walking and mobility
• Remembering to take medications
• Preparing nutritious meals
• Light housework
• Getting to appointments
• Conversation and social interaction
• Bathing, grooming, and getting dressed
• Supervision and wandering prevention
