When your parent or loved one is diagnosed with dementia, you may not know where to turn. You may be worried for your loved one’s safety and feel unsure about whether or not they will be able to maintain their quality of life. Know that you are not alone. Our memory care services have helped many seniors in Jenkintown, Lafayette Hill, Abington, Ambler, Lower Gwynedd, Philadelphia, Hatboro, Horsham and throughout Eastern Montgomery County.
If your loved one has been living with dementia, you understand just how hard they struggle with living on their own. The symptoms of dementia, such as memory loss and problems with wandering, can make independent living difficult and even dangerous for seniors.
You may have thought about relocating your loved one to an assisted living facility or nursing home. However, these facilities aren't always the best solution. An unfamiliar place can agitate seniors with dementia, causing them to become confused and upset. This can especially affects seniors who wish to live on their own despite their diagnosis.
In-home dementia care is becoming a popular choice for seniors with memory-related illnesses like dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and others. This is because the familiar surroundings of the home they've lived in for years can make it easier for them to manage their symptoms. However, living at home with dementia requires additional support. Many family caregivers aren't equipped to provide this level of care, which is why many families turn to professional agencies like Visiting Angels.
