How Home Care Changes for Alzheimer’s and Dementia

When your loved one is facing Alzheimer’s or dementia, it can be difficult to know where to turn. The journey is challenging, but with the right support, you can navigate this time with more peace of mind. At AmoryCare, we provide the compassionate care your loved one needs, so you can focus on what truly matters—cherishing each moment together.


Dementia: An Umbrella Term for Mental Decline

Dementia is not a single disease, but a broad term describing a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking, and daily functioning. While dementia is more common among older adults, it is not a normal part of aging. Understanding the specific type of dementia your loved one has can help you provide better support.


Early signs of dementia include:

  • Forgetting familiar names or faces

  • Difficulty with basic tasks or problem-solving

  • Repeating questions or stories

  • Getting lost in familiar places


AmoryCare’s trained caregivers can step in to support your loved one, helping with daily activities and ensuring they remain comfortable and safe.



Alzheimer’s Disease: A Cause of Dementia

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, affecting millions of seniors. It involves progressive memory loss and cognitive decline, making daily tasks more challenging. Common early symptoms include:


  • Trouble remembering recent events or conversations

  • Difficulty with decision-making and reasoning

  • Personality and mood changes


At AmoryCare, we’re here to help ease the journey for both your loved one and your family. Our caregivers offer personalized care to support your loved one’s physical and emotional needs while respecting their dignity.



Tips for Caring for Someone with Early Dementia

Caring for someone with dementia or Alzheimer’s can be tough, but there are ways to make the process easier. Here are some tips:


  • Stick to a consistent routine to provide structure

  • Offer simple tasks to maintain a sense of independence

  • Use gentle reminders to assist with memory loss


Our compassionate caregivers will assist with tasks such as dressing, grooming, and meal preparation, ensuring your loved one receives the care they need.
