When you have a loved one with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, it may feel impossible to decide: Should I care for my loved one with Alzheimer’s myself? Should I get some help with Alzheimer’s care at home? Should I take my loved one with dementia to a nursing home or assisted living facility?
Here’s what you need to know about Alzheimer’s care at home to help you decide whether that’s a good option for you and your loved one.
Yes. With the right supportive care, many people with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can age in place and live at home. According to the Alzheimer’s Association:
“Many people with Alzheimer's continue to live successfully on their own during the early stage of the disease…[You should] arrange for someone to help you with housekeeping, meals, transportation, and daily chores.”
Dementia care at home is a collection of services that help people with dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other forms of cognitive decline age in place rather than going to an assisted living facility or nursing home. Home care for dementia patients may include anything from companionship to housekeeping to assistance with activities of daily living all the way to skilled nursing and around-the-clock care.
Dementia care at home may include:
While your primary concern might be preventing your loved one from wandering away when you aren’t with them, companionship is also extremely important for older adults. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
“Social isolation significantly increased a person’s risk of premature death from all causes, a risk that may rival those of smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity...Poor social relationships…[were] associated with a 29% increased risk of heart disease and a 32% increased risk of stroke...Loneliness was associated with higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide.”
Caring for a person with dementia at home involves preventing the patient from wandering off, ensuring their basic needs are taken care of, helping them with activities of daily living, making sure they take medication and get to doctor appointments on time, and overall ensuring the patient has a high quality of life while staying in a familiar home for as long as possible.
With the right type and amount of care, a person with Alzheimer’s may be able to live the rest of their lives at home. Alzheimer’s care at home can grow to accommodate a dementia patient’s changing needs, up to and including around-the-clock care.
It’s natural to want to care for your loved one all by yourself, but it is physically and emotionally demanding – it’s OK to ask for help.
