And are you aware of such a wonderful phrase? “Home is one of the most pleasant words.” Home atmosphere is especially crucial for the elderly, especially those suffering from dementia. They find it easier to cope with their conditions in a familiar and cozy home environment, where they have lived for many years and experienced countless positive emotions. Believe us, neither hospital walls nor corridors have brought anyone special joy yet. We do our best to ensure that dementia care services provided in your relative’s home are of high quality. The term “dementia” refers to the deterioration of mental abilities caused by trauma or a brain disease. Among the main symptoms can be observed:
Dementia greatly hinders a person in daily life, as well as in communication with others.
Sometimes, elderly people with this illness and their relatives, living with them, can face serious security problems. Problems can occur anywhere: during walks, when swimming, in communication. Their behavior is often very difficult to explain. Such people can even confuse people. Our specialists always closely follow the patients, not allowing them to commit acts that can be harmful or even dangerous for their life/health. They also provide an excellent care, dealing with them daily in order to improve their condition. Thanks to our professionalism and rich experience, our specialists will provide patients with a comfortable stay in their own home.
There are situations when patients lose their sense of individuality and significance. In such cases, our caregivers are usually ready to help them. They are aware of the basic psychological aspects of such people, helping them to feel both comfortable and self-sufficient. There is no secret if one person has dementia in the family, then all the other family members suffer from this. Sympathy, anger, despair – all these emotions are mixed with each other. Of course, a patient experiences mental deficiencies, being often lost and frightened of everything, happening around him. But do not forget patients need sincere and powerful support to feel as well as possible. Our specialists always find an approach to any type of person, relying on their individual qualities and characteristics. Our caregivers usually plan their day, starting with cooking, easy cleaning/laundry, games and activities aimed at training the brain and ending with reminders about taking medication and assisting in walks.
