In Home Dementia Care
Research has shown that those who struggle with dementia related diseases like Alzheimer’s do extremely well within the comforts of their familiar environments. Routine and familiarity seem to breed a feeling of wellbeing and a generally better outlook on life for those afflicted with dementia. When it comes to choices for your loved one after a diagnosis of dementia or Alzheimer’s, you may feel limited to nursing homes or assisted living facilities.
