Why staying home can help
Familiar rooms, routines and faces matter more as memory changes. Many families find a parent is calmer at home than in a new place, especially in the early and middle stages.
What our caregivers help with
- A steady daily routine, with meals and rest at the same times
- Gentle help with bathing, dressing and the bathroom
- Redirecting when your parent is anxious or restless
- Activities they still enjoy, like music, photos or folding laundry
- Watching for wandering and other safety risks at home
- Company in the late afternoon, when confusion often gets worse
Support for you, too
Caring for a parent with dementia is a long road. Regular visits give you time to sleep, work and be their son or daughter again, not only their caregiver. Need a full break? See respite care.

Dementia Care questions
What is the difference between dementia care and Alzheimer's care?
Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia. Our Alzheimer's care page covers what changes stage by stage. This page covers dementia care in general, including types such as vascular and Lewy body dementia.
Can you help at night?
Yes. Longer shifts and 24-hour care are options when nights become hard.
