Alzheimer’s Care

Philadelphia Alzheimer's Care for Seniors

Professional Alzheimer's Care Services

Serving Philadelphia, Bucks, Montgomery, Delaware & Chester County

Alzheimer’s patient care can be challenging when you’re dealing with an elderly loved one, as it’s difficult to see someone you’ve known all your life slip away. This is one of the reasons why home care for Alzheimer’s patients is so popular. But how do you go about understanding whether your elderly loved one might have Alzheimer’s? There’s a list of symptoms that you can check off that can help answer this question, but keep in mind that visiting a qualified doctor is the only way to conclusively determine whether your loved one has Alzheimer’s.

What is Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer’s is a degenerative neurological disease that affects the brain in such a way that people’s cognitive functioning, motor skills, memory, and coherence slowly but steadily decline as time passes. No one is really sure as to what causes this vicious disease, but we’re aware of some of the steps that one can take to make sure that a senior who is showing signs of Alzheimer’s lives in as much peace, comfort, and satisfaction as are possible with this disease.

Care without Discrimination

Many symptoms of Alzheimer’s are synonymous with the process of aging, and while some of them are just that, many times these lead to either Alzheimer’s or dementia, which with early treatment can greatly improve your elderly loved one’s life. Some of the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s include frequent memory loss that can either be long or short term. There’s difficulty in placing people in certain places, their names and relevant details (how long have they known that person?) along with difficulty in processing and remembering new information.

Aside from that, there’s confusion regarding where they are, how they got there, confusion regarding time, confusion with understanding physical space, misplacing things often and not being able to remember anything about the object along with a decreasing sense of judgment when it comes to decision making.

Who We Serve

Daily Living Assistance

In situations such as these, consulting with a home care agency can be helpful and beneficial to both you and your loved one. Sending Alzheimer’s patients to a nursing or old age home can be an issue as most people with Alzheimer’s respond better to a set routine and a sense of familiarity (like knowing the exact location of certain objects). We here at Right Aid Home Care Agency are committed to providing the best quality care: we’re based in Philadelphia and have some of the best Philadelphia home health aides in our employment who can take care of your elderly loved one with Alzheimer’s. However, it’s important to educate yourself regarding Alzheimer’s and the options you’ll have to fight it. It’s also important to make sure that the financial, legal and health matters are tended to immediately.

The most important thing is to be there for your elderly loved one by building a support system. We just help make things easier and more efficient by providing cognitive exercises to strengthen the brain by playing stimulating music, solving puzzles and problems together, and in general building a comfortable and satisfying environment for your elderly loved one to live in.
