When is it Time for an Alzheimer’s Caregiver in San Fernando Valley?

When a loved one in San Fernando Valley is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, it can be a time of uncertainty and questions. One of the biggest concerns for many families is when to bring in outside help from an Alzheimer’s caregiver. Visiting Angels Reseda is here to help. The progression of Alzheimer’s disease can differ from person to person, but being observant of your loved one’s behavior and mood can help you recognize changes and provide the level of care your loved one needs.

Keep an eye out for common signs that your loved one in San Fernando Valley may benefit from the assistance of an Alzheimer’s caregiver:   

• Fire or water damage. Scorch marks on pots and pans can indicate food was forgotten on the stove, while water damage could be from a faucet left on accidentally.

• A change in hygiene or personal care. As Alzheimer’s progresses, your loved one may not remember to bathe, change their clothes, or shave.  

• Wandering. Getting lost in familiar places or wandering off.

• Caregiver stress - Being a family caregiver for a loved one with Alzheimer's can be both rewarding and emotionally draining. If you are stressed and exhausted, the best thing you can do for yourself and your loved one is recharging your batteries.
