Comfort Keepers of Red Deer provides individualized home care for seniors who are battling the symptoms of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. Our caregivers are professionally trained and experienced to provide dementia care services that go above and beyond the standard of care.
At a high level, dementia is a decline in cognitive ability, such as memory loss or an inability to complete familiar tasks, serious enough to interfere with a person’s daily life. Alzheimer’s is the most common type of dementia, accounting for 50 to 80 percent of dementia cases. Our services help people with these symptoms by focusing on their remaining abilities and strengths while assisting with tasks that have become difficult for the client to perform.
We thoroughly interview every applicant before a new Comfort Keeper joins our team to make sure they already have the most important caring qualities: empathy, compassion, reliability, and a commitment to go above and beyond when assisting people in need. In addition to industry-leading mandatory training, many Comfort Keepers caregivers choose to obtain certificates in specialized memory and dementia care and work with those who require our assistance the most after joining our local care team.
Additionally, an Interactive Caregiving component specially tailored to the client’s symptoms and needs is included in our senior care programs. We’ll learn about the things that make your loved one happy and their likes and dislikes. The goal is to solidify a strong relationship with your partner. We will maintain their interest in their care by engaging them in activities that encourage both physical and mental wellness.
