Trusted Alzheimer's Care in Chicago
Finding suitable home care services for your parent or elderly loved one can be daunting in the best of circumstances. When your loved one also suffers from Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, it can become even more intimidating to choose a provider. Visiting Angels® Chicago is a trusted, locally-owned resource for Alzheimer's care. Many families in Niles, Lincolnwood, and Golf have already discovered the benefits of our care.
Visiting Angels has been providing senior care for nearly two decades. We have worked with the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America to develop a landmark training program that addresses the complex and varied needs of clients struggling with memory disorders. We are the first agency of our kind to create this type of specialized training. Being able to lend assistance to seniors and their families through our Alzheimer’s care is what Visiting Angels Chicago is all about.
Alzheimer's Care that Meets Your Needs
Alzheimer's is a disease that affects every individual differently. To ensure our clients are receiving the care they need, we create personalized care plans for each individual. Our team gathers detailed information about your loved one's care needs. Then, we can combine our services in a way that meets those needs.
Here are some of the common ways in which we assist our clients:
- Light housekeeping
- Meal planning and preparation
- Friendly companionship
- Mobility assistance and fall prevention
- Transportation for appointments
- Medication reminders
- Running errands and grocery shopping
- Wandering prevention
With Alzheimer's comes many changes in your loved one's mental and emotional health. Confusion and disorientation can cause a lot of difficulty when trying to provide care. Our caregivers are well-versed in dealing with these difficult moments. We also implement calming techniques throughout our visits, including listening to music, going for walks, and taking part in hobbies.
When you have a loved one with Alzheimer’s or dementia, schedules and routines are very important. Helping your loved one know what to expect or look forward to helps them feel more confident and secure. This is why Visiting Angels Chicago makes sure we have Alzheimer's care available around the clock. If you have concerns about your loved one’s safety overnight, we can be there to help. If you want to make sure they have a hand during the day to help with daily activities, we can take care of that as well.
The customizable nature of our home care makes it easy to alter your loved one's care plan as often as needed. Alzheimer's is a progressive disease, making it likely that needs will change over time. A simple phone call is all it takes to make changes to your loved one's care plan. We can add or remove services, as well as increase or decrease caregiver visits.
