There are few more difficult challenges a family will ever have to face than a when a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimer's or dementia. That's because memory loss creates a constantly moving target when it comes to senior care. What works one day may not be effective the next, so untrained caregivers often struggle to keep up. Visiting Angels^® Scranton offers dementia care that comes complete with all of the options and strategies necessary to help enable seniors with memory loss to continue living independently at home, despite the difficulties of their disease. In the hands of our compassionate caregivers, these services improve seniors' quality of life and put their families' mind at ease.
