You are not alone. We can help care for your loved one at home, giving you the support you need.
At Comfort Keepers®, we understand the struggles and challenges most families face when caring for a senior with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, and we are here to help. Our caregivers receive special training to care for seniors with dementia, and we are dedicated to providing the highest quality care to support families during this difficult time. We understand Alzheimer’s disease, its symptoms, how it affects behaviour, and that it progresses at different rates for different seniors.
We understand what families are going through and we’re here to help. Contact us to discuss your family member’s specific needs. One of our staff is ready to discuss Alzheimer and dementia solutions.
Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Care
Comfort Keepers® Alzheimer’s disease and dementia care is dedicated to preserving the happiness and independence of seniors living in their own homes for as long as safely possible.
How Comfort Keepers Can Help
Our caregivers are trained in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia care and are also trained to implement Comfort Keepers’ unique Interactive Caregiving™ system. With Interactive Caregiving, the Alzheimer’s disease and dementia care provider will get to know the senior on a personal level, learning about likes, dislikes and even past events in the senior’s life. While developing a relationship with the senior, the caregiver can plan activities that could help the senior simulate mental or physical activities that have been shown to create more lucid thought. The senior and care provider can listen to music together from the senior’s favourite era, read an old favourite book or even do memory exercises like looking through family photos or discussing current events.
Keeping seniors engaged physically and mentally can help to reduce challenging behaviour and help them remain safe and calm.
