Understanding Alzheimer’s disease:
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia, a physical disease that affects the brain. It leads to the death of nerve cells and the loss of brain tissue. As the disease progresses, more parts of the brain are affected, and symptoms worsen over time, often interfering with daily life. Early symptoms may include memory lapses, such as difficulty recalling recent events and learning new information. Mood changes are also common, with feelings of anxiety, irritability, or depression. As the condition advances, memory loss may become more severe, and other symptoms, such as delusions and hallucinations, may appear. Having a dedicated Care Professional can make a world of difference.
Understanding Alzheimer’s Care:
Alzheimer’s care is about recognizing and understanding the unique experiences and challenges each person faces. It’s about seeing the individual, not just their symptoms, and meeting them where they are with empathy, warmth, and positive affirmations. Our goal is to support them in their reality, helping them feel understood and cared for.
The benefits of Alzheimer’s Care:
Proper care and support for someone living with Alzheimer’s encourages them to maintain as much independence as possible. It enables them to live happily and safely in their own home, surrounded by people they know and trust.
