Your Alzheimer’s Home Care Roadmap: Essential Tips, Real Family Stories, and Key Resources

By Geriatric Care Solution

 Facing Alzheimer’s at Home: The First Steps 

Receiving an Alzheimer’s diagnosis can be overwhelming—and every journey is different. One thing remains true: most people with dementia want to remain at home, surrounded by people and things they love. With the right inhome care, this can be a safe and positive experience for everyone.

  

 Family Profile: The Leungs’ Care Planning 

Mrs. Leung was a retired artist who started mixing up colors and forgetting old friends’ names. Her family wanted to respect her independence—“help for aging parents” was their online search—yet ensure she was never alone during confused moments.

 

The Solution:

Geriatric Care Solution designed a companion care and arttherapybased plan just for Mrs. Leung.

Her caregiver, Michelle, encouraged gentle painting sessions and music time, helping Mrs. Leung find joy and connection.

Regular team meetings ensured medications, meals, and safety procedures were always followed.

As needs increased, we smoothly transitioned to more personal care services.

 Use short sentences.

 Always approach from the front and at eye level.
