Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care in Miramar, FL

At Assisting Hands Home Care, we are committed to catering to the client’s specific care needs, which is why we personalize each care plan. To do this, we turn our attention to the following:

• Client’s Background and History: The first sign of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia is short-term memory loss. When you suffer short-term memory loss, engaging in conversation can be difficult. Our caregivers will form a personal relationship with the client, engaging them in conversation and spending time with them.
• Family Members: Family members are the individuals who are most familiar with the client and their condition, which is why we seek their guidance when creating the care plan.
• Kind Deliverables: Our caregivers are always compassionate and respectful to your loved ones. We know that individuals who are suffering from dementia can feel confused or even frustrated, and our caregivers will use positive engagement to alleviate such feelings.

Individuals who have Alzheimer’s disease or dementia should receive care at home, because their home is an environment they are familiar and comfortable with. Our caregivers encourage clients to do self-care activities to help establish a sense of normalcy and make sure the environment they’re in is quiet, safe, and free of clutter.

Common Behaviors of Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia

Individuals affected by Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia are usually unable to maintain their personal hygiene, cook for themselves, perform housekeeping tasks, and do other daily activities. They may also forget to take necessary medications. Among the other common characteristics associated with dementia are as follows:

• Forgetfulness
• Wandering
• Agitation
• Incontinence

At Assisting Hands Home Care, our caregivers know these symptoms and how to counteract them accordingly. We will keep clients engaged by making conversation, taking walks, or playing games. These activities will keep them active both mentally and physically.

"Please let me begin by saying thank to you and your staff. I was very impressed in how fast you were to reach out to help my mom and myself. It was a blessing that I did not have to wait and you were able to come within hours to talk to my mom and me. I want to also say thank you for being flexible with the schedule of days and times that were needed and for keeping me in the loop if there was a concern about my mom. Also I’d to point out the wonderful staff that you have. Each person my mom had was sweet, professional and would carry on good conversation with my mom. You are like little Angels that are needed! Thank you again."

"Rita at Assisting Hands has been a godsend. She’s been able to arrange kind, loving care for my mom as her physical abilities decline, and has been astonishingly quick to find excellent caregivers to fill Mom’s needs. We needed to go from 6 hours a week to 15 hours a day very rapidly, and Rita was able to arrange excellent people for all the extra hours within a day of my calling her. I live thousands of miles away, so my family really relies on Assisting Hands for care. And they are wonderful. They even managed to rearrange their own caregiver’s schedule so she could be with my Mom every day. I recommend these folks enthusiastically. Don’t know what I would have done without them."
