Memory Care

If memory is an issue, the care givers at Assisting hands have been specially trained to handle Alzheimers and Dementia.

Alzheimers Care

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimers, our staff can help maintain a comfortable lifestyle. By helping with forgetfulness, recalling names, and simple confusion, our care takers will help you or your loved one overcome these challenges.

Dementia Care

Dementia, like Alzheimers can be difficult to deal with. Similar to Alzheimers, difficulty recalling names and general confusion is common, but Dementia also can cause anxiety, depression, hallucinations, selfishness, and the disregarding of manners. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with Dementia, our qualified team at Assisting hands can help.
