Is it Time for an Alzheimer’s Caregiver in Norfolk?

Many families begin looking for an Alzheimer’s caregiver in Norfolk when a family caregiver needs respite, or when the disease has progressed to the point that outside help is needed on a regular basis. If you’re trying to determine whether it’s the right time to bring in additional support, ask yourself the following questions:

• Is confusion or forgetfulness disrupting my loved one’s daily life?

• Do they forget to take prescribed medications?

• Does your loved one forget to eat, bathe, or change their clothes?

• Have you noticed a decrease in judgment?

• Are you worried about their safety when you’re not there?

• Have you noticed signs or fire damage or water damage in their home?

• Has their care become too much to handle on your own, physically or mentally?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, a caregiver from Visiting Angels Norfolk, Portsmouth and Suffolk could be the answer.
