Home Care Solutions For Seniors With ALS & Parkinson's In Southbury, CT

Find out how our home care solutions can help your loved one who is dealing with ALS or Parkinson's in Southbury, CT

Most seniors over the age of 65 require at least some degree of daily living assistance to maintain their independence. For some seniors, this assistance can be as simple as a few hours of housekeeping support. Others may need services that address greater needs.

Comfort Keepers provides a wide range of services designed to help seniors maintain their freedom while safely residing in the comfort and familiarity of their own home despite the physical, emotional, or cognitive challenges they may face.

One of the more challenging conditions that may impact seniors is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS. ALS is a life-altering, degenerative diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. Like these other diseases, ALS slowly degrades a senior both physically and mentally. Over time, a senior will require assistance with most areas of daily life. In the past, most seniors with ALS would likely end up in a nursing home. Today, Comfort Keepers provides the home care solutions and support they need to safely and comfortably age in place.

Since ALS is a progressive disorder, seniors may not need that much support at first. As the disease progresses, the amount and intensity of needed supports will increase. Comfort Keepers home care solutions are all individually tailored to meet a senior's specific needs. They are also highly flexible, so they can be adapted to a senior's changing requirements. Best of all, Comfort Keepers supports are available 24-hours a day, 365 days a year so there is never a time a senior would need to go without home care solutions. This is especially important when seniors need help with transferring and positioning, mobility assistance, or use specialized medical devices such as mechanical ventilation.

If your senior loved one has ALS or if you simply want more information about Comfort Keepers supports and services, contact a senior care coordinator today. They will be happy to answer any questions you may have and even schedule a free in-home consultation.
