Comfort Keepers^® Makes Home the Place for Alzheimer’s Care

Alzheimer’s care is safely and effectively provided in the comfort of home by the professional, compassionate caregivers of Comfort Keepers^® of State College, Pennsylvania.

Comfort Keepers provides in-home elder care for older adults who need some form of assistance to maintain safe and satisfying independent living in their own home.

Our caregivers – our Comfort Keepers— are prepared to address the special requirements for safe, effective Alzheimer’s care. Comfort Keepers partner with family caregivers, providing them peace of mind and confidence that they can make a significant difference in the quality of life of their loved ones through Alzheimer’s care—while also assuring their safety.

Through providing in-home Alzheimer’s care, Comfort Keepers assist with personal care, such as bathing, grooming and dressing. They also offer companionship care, taking time to converse and reminisce with their consumers to promote their communication skills and cognitive well-being.

Meal preparation is another essential component of Alzheimer’s care. Comfort Keepers make certain their consumers get the nutrients and energy that are essential to maintaining optimal physical and mental health.

Comfort Keepers work alongside families to make home safe for Alzheimer’s care—specifically to protect persons with Alzheimer’s who are apt to wander. This includes an assessment to identify potential risks, limiting access to dangerous areas of the home and preventing wandering from the home and access to car keys.

In addition, SafetyChoice® by Comfort Keepers Technology Solutions include electronic devices that help prevent persons with Alzheimer’s from wandering.

Another essential Alzheimer’s care service that Comfort Keepers offers is respite care. Respite care benefits family caregivers, who in the course of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia experience a good amount of stress. Uninterrupted caregiving can play a great toll on a family caregiver’s health.

But through respite care, Comfort Keepers periodically take over caregiving responsibilities to give family caregivers a chance to rest, get out of the house and take care of other responsibilities.

Comfort Keepers of State College, Pennsylvania, provides Alzheimer’s care and other elder care in the communities and surrounding areas of State College, Altoona, Ebensburg, Clearfield and Dubois.
