Dementia Care with Home Care for Port St Lucie, FL Residents

Non-medical home care services are great options for caregivers seeking respite care in a home environment. Unfortunately assistance with daily living tasks such as dressing, bathing, eating or using the toilet are not considered a skill covered by Medicare. Custodial care is privately paid with an hourly rate or daily rate with a minimum of 4 hours per visit.

The national average for non-medical home care is $22.00/hour in the United States. Other financial support may come from a long term care policy previously purchased or the VA Aid and Attendance Benefits for Veterans or Spouses. Home care services can be coordinated through a nurse registry or a home health care agency. Before hiring a home health aide or senior companion for a loved one with a memory impairment, make certain the caregiver you interview is Alzheimer's trained and educated in disease management so you can have a positive experience.

Alzheimer's Assisted Living

Usually an assisted living facility designed for those living with Alzheimer's disease or other memory impairments can be a great alternative to home care. At an assisted living facility, activities are designed to stimulate the mind and body.

Most facilities have a full time activities director. Cognitive programming allows seniors to participate in activities and be surrounded by caregivers who are trained and specialized with memory impairment. Selecting an assisted living facility is a personal preference, however be sure to inquire about the cognitive programs available so your loved one can transition to their new home with comfort and preserve the quality of life they deserve.
