Alzheimer's Care at Home: What You Need to Know

If your loved one is at the beginning of their Alzheimer's journey, you probably have a lot to learn about the disease and the appropriate care. It is important to educate yourself about the disease, especially if you will be caring for your loved one. We have some great information on our website, or you can explore resources like the Alzheimer's Association.

Here are some things you need to know about Alzheimer's care at home:

• Your loved one will face many challenges. Yes, memory loss is the most well-known symptom of Alzheimer's. However, patients also experience mood swings, difficulty completing tasks, problems with speaking or writing, confusion about time and place, and much more. You should be aware of these daily challenges and remember that every day will be different.
• Help them with functionality. There are some small ways you can help your loved one's functionality. Assisting them with memory games and word puzzles can help to keep their mind functioning. Also, be sure to let them stay active as long as they are able.
• Build a support system. Alzheimer's is a disease that not only affects the patient, but the family and friends as well. Gathering a support system around you and your loved one can be invaluable. With our Alzheimer's care at home, we can give you and your loved one the necessary support to make each day a little easier.
