Alzheimer’s and Dementia Home Care in North Palm Beach, FL

Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia affect more than 5 million Americans who are 65 years old or older.  Dementia is a term used to describe a number of conditions that lead to cognitive decline, including Alzheimer’s disease.  These diseases are degenerative, and the symptoms are mild in the early stages as those affected may have simple lapses in memory.  Over time, those affected will experience further cognitive decline which will cause more serious memory loss and leave them unable to care for themselves.  Seniors suffering from Alzheimer’s or dementia require constant care and receiving care in the familiar and comfortable environment of their own home is the most beneficial option.

What is Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia?

The terms Alzheimer’s disease and dementia are used interchangeably, but it is important to recognize the distinction.  Dementia is a general term that describes degenerative conditions that affect cognitive abilities while Alzheimer’s is a specific disease with recognized symptoms and stages.  Seniors who suffer from any type of dementia, including Alzheimer’s, will experience memory loss and declining cognitive abilities which will make it impossible for them to care for themselves.

Most people affected by dementia, about 60 to 80 percent, are in fact suffering from Alzheimer’s disease.  Alzheimer’s has become one of the leading causes of death in the U.S.

It can be difficult to tell if someone is in the early stages of Alzheimer’s or dementia.  The symptoms in the early stages are very mild and can be mistaken for memory lapses that are common with old age.  The following symptoms indicate that someone may be in the early stages of Alzheimer’s or dementia:

  • Consistent memory lapses
  • Trouble holding a conversation
  • Impaired reasoning
  • Irrational behavior and mood swings
  • Visual and spatial misjudgments

“From our first interaction with the owner and staff of Assisting Hands in West Palm Beach, we felt their desire to meet our particular needs in the care of our aging parent with limited mobility. They understood that she wished to stay in her home and wanted her own high standards of housekeeping and care maintained. Assisting Hands worked with the family to put in place the very best caregivers possible for our parent. The love, professionalism, dependability, and attention to detail shown by the caregivers and the staff was beyond our highest expectations. Communication was consistent, courteous, and excellent. Our family--living and working at some distance from our parent-- felt supported. Our parent felt comforted, loved, cared for, and secure in her own home, as we had hoped. Assisting Hands became an extension of our family.”

“A message from my mom....... About 8 months ago I realized I needed to get help. My husband was into his 10th year of Alzheimer. After interviewing a few care-giving agencies, I decided on Assisting Hands. I felt Marina was not only professional, but she also really understood the qualities we needed in a caregiver. Ivonne has been with us for about seven months and she definitely fits our needs. We sincerely appreciate Marina, Ivonne and the staff for their help and guidance! ~ Maria, Lake Worth”
