Benefits of Dementia Care at Home in Durango

provider of dementia care at home in Durango with elderly patient

When a loved one is diagnosed with dementia, one of the most important things you can do is create an environment where they can feel secure and in control. Familiar surroundings and routines can go a long way toward establishing this environment, which is why dementia care at home is such an attractive option for many families in the Durango area. Rather than moving into an entirely new living situation, seniors can receive personalized care from a professional in a context that they already understand, surrounded by the people and things they love.

How Dementia Care At Home in Durango Can Support the Whole Family

Arranging care at home for your loved one in Durango can benefit the whole family. Dementia care at home can often be a more affordable alternative to other care options, and it gives your family the opportunity to play a more active role in your loved one's continuing care. 

Through our dementia care services at Visiting Angels® Southwest Colorado, our caregivers in Durango can provide the following forms of assistance both to seniors with dementia and the people who look after them:

  • Regular reminders for seniors to take their prescribed medications
  • Specialized care that is specific to the individual's needs and challenges, whether they require help with grooming, meal preparation, or housework
  • Instructions and encouragement to follow routines that may help slow down the progress of decline
  • Ongoing monitoring of a senior's condition and how it changes over time
  • Companionship and mental stimulation to keep seniors more mentally engaged
  • Respite care for family caregivers so they can take time away from their care duties
  • Advice for family members on how to best communicate with and assist their relative with dementia
