Many times, loved ones are unsure how to interact with family members who have Dementia.
Since primary memory is deteriorating, instinctive activities fare better. Activities that center on the five senses are very important. Elder loved ones
might not remember how to bake their famous cookies, but when presented
with a lump of dough, it might be surprising at how quickly they start
rolling it out, just like they used to. Muscles tend to remember things
the mind has forgotten.
We encourage our caregivers at A-1 Home Care to take time to learn about their elderly patients before their illness, and the hobbies the engaged in. Oftentimes, such hobbies are ingrained in muscle memory, and do a lot to stir up positive feelings. For example, we've witnessed many elders simling from old songs they loved playing on the radio.
A-1 Home Care hires senior caregivers
with at least 2 years of experience or CNA/ CHHA certification. We hand
select our matches factoring for compatibility and skill level needed.
Stressed family members in Garden Grove, Los Alamitos, Long Beach, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach,
Newport Beach, Fountain Valley,
Corona Del Mar, Laguna Beach, and cities
others in Orange County and Los Angeles County can call anytime.
To interview and hire a
compatible caregiver in your area today, CALL us at
949-650-3800.
