Better Than Any Facility
Hourly home care provides dedicated one-on-one personal care to the ill and aging in their own home. This level of care isn't available in any facility care setting such as Assisted Living or Nursing Homes. All facilities operate using the same business model. That is, one caregiver takes care of many residents at the same time. In many cases, one caregiver is responsible for up to 30 residents at a time. This results in having to wait for care instead of receiving care exactly when you need it. With Allied Health Care you'll never have to wait for the care you need!

Alzheimer's and Dementia In-Home Care Services
Alzheimer's is the most common form of dementia, the type diagnosed in 60 to 80 percent of dementia cases. This disease is always difficult to deal with, for those living with it as well as their loved ones. A strong support system is essential.
As the disease progresses, the symptoms begin to make everyday living more challenging for those with the disease and the loved ones striving to help them cope. Families often find themselves singlehandedly trying to provide all the care necessary. This can result in a loss of emotional connection, which is invaluable to maintaining a strong family relationship. At this point, professional help often becomes necessary for proper care.
In the late stages of this disease, individuals require a great deal of care. The brain becomes unable to tell the body what to do for even the most basic functions. When it comes to this point, individuals often need more intensive aid than the average person has the knowledge or capability to offer. At this stage, it's often in the best interest of the diagnosed individual as well as the family to enlist the help of professionals who have experience caring for people with dementia or Alzheimer's. By utilizing Hourly or Stay-In Home Care through Affordable Home Care families receive the support they need to face dementia head on.
  
How Does Home Care Complement Dementia?

Safety First
Those with dementia or Alzheimer's often put themselves in harm's way. This generally requires constant supervision. The watchful eyes of our Care Pros ensure your loved one remains safe in the comfort of their own home. The Services We Provide will help the senior in your life stay safe while aging in place.

Slower Disease Progression
Our Care Pros specialize in keeping the mind of our Clients with dementia or Alzheimer's stimulated. This is important as studies have found that the disease progresses slower in those who stay mentally active. We have a toolbox full of activities specially designed for those with dementia. This allows us to customize an activity plan based on our Client's preferences. Sadly, Assisted Living and Nursing Home settings rarely offer this level of activity, often resulting in rapid decline.

Specialized Staff
Have peace of mind knowing you'll receive the most experienced and well trained staff. After reviewing Our Caregiver Selection Process you'll see that we only hire caregivers who understand how to deal with your family's unique challenges.
 
Home Care vs. Assisted Living
The typical environment inside a Nursing or retirement home is loud, busy, confusing and full of new faces and usually mental stimulation. It's because of these factors, dementia patients in institutional settings deteriorate more rapidly than those who remain in their own home.
In-home care reduces confusion by limiting the number of new faces. Since home is the most tranquil and familiar surroundings, having a dedicated Care team ensures your loved one will receive the mental stimulation that's so important to slow the disease down.

• Kitchen activities

Post Hospital Care
While in a hospital setting, it's easy to assume the transition back home will be smooth. However, once home it can be very difficult, sometimes impossible, to perform basic daily activities without hands on help. This increases your risk of having a fall, mismanaging your medications, and not receiving proper nutrition. These risks can easily send you right back to the hospital and extend your recovery period substantially. Following the proper after care instructions from your Doctor is something Allied Health care can provide you with assistance.

It's important to understand what your needs will be once you get home from the hospital and plan accordingly. It's vital for proper recovery after a surgery to have help if you're unable to safely perform any of the following functions:

• Get in and out of bed
• Independently walk a minimum of 50ft
• Get on and off the toilet
• Cook a warm meal
