What To Do?

There is a reality in this industry that when it comes time for families to consider dementia care services, it’s often a trying time for those involved. We keep this in mind as we work with families to find the best solutions for their loved ones.

This isn’t like some kind of planned service where people can think about whether to engage with some business for a number of years, and then finally call when they’re ready and schedule an appointment. Dementia care is something that becomes necessary quite suddenly, and it’s also something a lot of families ignore for longer than they should, sadly. Sometimes its easier to avoid the issue until it becomes so immediate that you just can’t ignore it anymore. Countless times, we have heard this from families who really feel under considerable pressure, partly because of waiting.

All of that puts people in a sticky situation when they’re talking to professional caregivers. So it helps to have a company that understands the nature of this decision-making process and does some of the heavy lifting ourselves. That is a real value to the people who come to us for help, because they have realized that time is of the essence.

Activities and Schedules

Part of that is having a robust activity plan for seniors with dementia.

Filling that calendar gives people a framework for how they’re going to help their loved ones benefit from these services. Instead of just setting someone in a room, the activity calendar is geared toward the kind of therapeutic routine that people want and need and what’s best for all of our clients. Combining activities with meals and other care makes the days go by, and gives people more to do, and that protects them from the dangers of cognitive decline. There’s still hope for these individuals!
