Signs Your Loved One Needs Alzheimer’s Care
Determining when a person needs full-time care is not always straightforward. While physicians can conduct tests to assess cognitive impairment, it is often the family who has the best insight into whether their loved one requires additional care.
Mood/Personality Changes
Advanced forms of the disease can cause dangerous and aggressive behaviours. These changes can cause family and friends to be concerned about their loved one's safety, as well as their own.
Hygiene Struggles
Clients with Alzheimer’s disease frequently neglect housekeeping and personal hygiene. They may forget to complete household tasks or struggle with dressing and bathing.
Caregiver Stress
Caregiver stress occurs when the primary caregiver experiences exhaustion or stress from neglecting their own needs. If caregiving is taking a toll on you mentally and physically, you may want to consider seeking Alzheimer's caregiver support for additional help.
Health and Safety Risks
Family members may feel concern regarding their loved one’s safety. Alzheimer’s patients can forget to turn a stove off or take medication. They can take too much medication, forget doctor’s appointments or skip meals. Individuals can fall or wander off from home.
Our Alzheimer’s Care Services
Alzheimer’s affects every aspect of life. Families caring for Alzheimer’s patients must navigate through safety concerns, personality changes, and personal care. However, with Ask4Care’s Alzheimer’s home care services, our caregivers can assist and support your loved one to improve their quality of life. We can also ensure their comfort and safety as the disease progresses.
Personal Care
We customize care to our client’s unique needs. Ask4Care helps families develop personalized, comprehensive Alzheimer’s care plans to address their loved one’s individual needs. Our compassionate caregivers provide daily assistance with essential tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility support.
We work closely with families to create customized care plans that address physical, emotional, and cognitive needs, ensuring your loved one receives the right level of support at each stage of the disease.
By focusing on preserving dignity and fostering independence, we help families focus on creating meaningful moments with their loved ones while we handle the day-to-day care.
Medication Assistance
Medication assistance helps seniors ensure they take their prescriptions at the right time and with the correct dosage. It also alleviates family members' concerns about their loved ones forgetting to take their medication.
Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) can also assist clients in managing medications, medical devices (such as ostomy bags), injections, and other medical needs as necessary.
Companionship
Alzheimer’s caregivers create meaningful companionship, helping to eliminate isolation or loneliness and stimulating cognitive functioning. Companionship offers clients with Alzheimer’s an ongoing familiar face. We strive to promote meaningful conversation, provide support to reduce social isolation and reminisce with clients about their past. Gentle reminders and consistent routines generate a stimulating and safe atmosphere.
Wandering Prevention
Wandering may occur with or without a reason. However, our caregivers' main goal is to ensure your loved one remains safe and to determine ways to prevent it from occurring. We keep your loved ones safe by securing their homes, ensuring they always have identification, focusing on sleeping patterns, and other methods.
Sometimes, caregivers discover triggers for wandering and prevent ways of having it happen. For example, if your loved one becomes frustrated and wanders at night, it may be because they are hungry or thirsty. Providing them with water and crackers by their bed can prevent the behaviour.

The Benefits of Having an Alzheimer’s Caregiver
There are a number of benefits to having live-in or frequent Alzheimer’s home care. Our services allow individuals to remain connected to the community, receive personalized care, foster independence or belonging, and provide continual companionship.
Personalized Care and Support
Tailored care addresses your loved one’s preferences and needs. It also becomes essential as the disease progresses. Caregivers can adapt Alzheimer’s care services at each stage and provide support as frequently or infrequently as required.
24/7 Supervision
Continual support offers numerous safety benefits. It reduces the likelihood of falls, ensures immediate assistance in case of accidents, and provides ongoing help with daily tasks.
Improved Quality of Life
Alzheimer’s caregivers help maintain patients’ self-esteem and well-being. Those with Alzheimer’s often experience a lack of self-esteem, identity, and control. Experienced caregivers can address emotional challenges and provide support to help clients maintain a positive outlook.
Ongoing support in a familiar environment with someone who knows about Alzheimer’s can keep your loved one safe while allowing them to remain independent. Caregivers can improve your family member’s quality of life by providing assistance in needed areas. As their needs increase, we can provide additional care.
Peace of Mind
Ask4Care’s Alzheimer home care services are designed to give you complete peace of mind. Our experienced caregivers provide attentive, compassionate care that ensures your family member’s safety, well-being, and comfort at all times. With 24/7 support available, you can rest assured knowing your loved one is in capable hands, receiving the personalized attention they deserve.
