In today's environment, the demand for care is on the rise, particularly for those with complex frailty, dementia, and nursing needs. It's vital that we prioritise outcome-driven care and prevention strategies to counter deconditioning and empower individuals to maintain their independence. Preventative measures must be seen as indispensable rather than discretionary. #empowerindividuals#dementia#sam2Sam

Why choose in-home care instead of a memory care unit? Memory care units provide 24/7 supervision and easy access to nursing care, but many seniors fear having to downsize and losing their independence. Dementia home care can fill the gap between full independence and moving to a memory care unit. Home care provides one-on-one care while maintaining a safe environment in a home that is familiar to clients. Interested in learning more about at-home dementia care services?

Often located in larger “assisted living” type of communities or in smaller residential settings, memory care facilities Nationwide and communities specialize in special needs care and may also have the actual building set up to enhance memory functions and to decrease potential confusion for memory care residents. Activities focused on memory recall from past experiences are usually the staple of activities in these settings. People who are appropriate for this setting are usually those that are already residing in a assisted living environment who has begun forgetting how to perform daily activities of life or who have been getting lost, wandering or going in other people’s rooms thinking it was their own.

Carepartners support older adults in our home care and GEM divisions. What exactly is a carepartner and how are they different from caregivers? The answer is in the name. A carepartner is a partner in providing care, encouring older adults to take part in the process. We believe this is the best way to empower an older adult to be as independent as possible. This usually leads to improvements in self-esteem and an overall better quality of life. https://lnkd.in/eycndQJQ
