Our Mission: To Improve the Quality of Life for Those Suffering with Alzheimer’s Disease and Their Families

When a family member has Alzheimer's, it becomes important to ensure that they have support systems in place to live with dignity, comfort, and ease during trying times. For as long as possible, Alzheimer's care from Visiting Angels^® Southeast Portland can help your loved one maintain the quality of life they previously enjoyed. We support families in and around West Linn who are dealing with these and other age-related challenges.

For those with Alzheimer's, a familiar environment and familiar routines can be great sources of comfort. We help seniors struggling with Alzheimer's to remain living at home, in the surroundings they know so well. Your loved one's caregiver can help them maintain the familiar routines and schedule that they've always enjoyed, so they face as little disruption or confusion in their day-to-day as possible.  

Responsive Alzheimer's Care For West Linn Area Seniors 

At Visiting Angels Southeast Portland, our Alzheimer's care is distinct from other types of in-home care offered in West Linn. We know that seniors with Alzheimer's often have very specific needs, and require a greater level of attentive support. We make sure your loved one's care is tailored to their current condition while anticipating future needs, too.  

Our caregivers administer empathetic, supportive care that takes each client's emotional, physical, and mental well-being into consideration. For those with Alzheimer's, we can be present during moments of disorientation, confusion, or distress, alleviating anxiety and providing gentle companionship.  

We also provide respite care for families and family caregivers who are looking after individuals with Alzheimer's. For non-professional caregivers, caregiver burnout is a real health risk that can put further strain on your family during this difficult time. We can provide temporary, part-time, or cooperative home care options, taking the weight off you and your family. 

The Benefits of Aging in Place

Aging in place is a wonderful thing for many seniors, but for those with Alzheimer's, remaining at home can be absolutely critical. By staying in a familiar and comfortable setting, your loved one will have a better chance of avoiding the extreme confusion and anxiety that often come with this disorder. Plus, with our support, they'll get direct, one-on-one care instead of simply being one of many in the care facility. 

At Visiting Angels Southeast Portland, we aim to help more seniors extend their home lives and live in the peaceful, private, and dignified setting of their long-time home. We work closely with each family to create the right care plan tailored to each person's individual needs and designed to keep them safe, happy, and comfortable as they age in place.

Dedicated Caregivers You Can Trust

With the sensitive nature of this role, we take our caregiver hiring process very seriously. This involves both background and reference checks, so that we can make sure every person is suited for the role. We select people who are qualified, resourceful, compassionate, and eager to help others. When you sign up for our in-home Alzheimer's care in the West Linn area, you can expect loving support that upholds the following qualities:

• Compassion. We understand how difficult it can be for families in your situation, so we work hard to provide loving and compassionate care to improve the lives of seniors and help relatives relax. 
• Comfort. One of our primary goals is to make life as comfortable as possible, so we'll take over daily chores and help your loved one maintain a clean, tidy, and organized living space.
