Alzheimer/Dementia Care

One in eight older Americans suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease. With the growing numbers of Alzheimer’s and Dementia patients, we recognize the need to help families care for their loved ones and offer relief from the pressures and stress that it can bring to the family. We are certified through the Alzheimer’s Association of America to care for individuals with dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Families are often faced with the challenge of how to provide care for their loved one. Many feel overwhelmed with the responsibilities of daily life and the extensive care that accompanies a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s. Fortunately, we are able to provide families with the help they need.Our services allow your loved one to remain at home in familiar surroundings while providing the consistency of daily living habits that are very important with caring for Alzheimer’s patients. Our caretakers are trained and qualified to give the respite care or long term care your family needs.
