Alzheimer's disease affects 18% of the tens of thousands of seniors we help annually. As a leading provider of dementia care in Scarborough, ME, Comfort Keepers is well-versed in the difficulties families face while attempting to keep a loved one with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia in their own home.

To improve the quality of life for seniors and their families, our highly-trained caregivers provide a wide range of stimulating intellectual, physical, and emotional activities.

We can help you care for your loved one at home while also providing you with the assistance you need and offering exceptional quality of care. We believe that everyone, regardless of age or level of care, should have access to connection, purpose, and joy.

Perks of Choosing Comfort Keepers:

  • Specially trained caregivers

  • Tasks are added to the dementia care plan to keep the older adult physically, cognitively, and emotionally active.
  • In-home services include personal care, companionship, medication reminders, and family respite care.

For adults with dementia, Comfort Keepers will create and implement a dementia care plan tailored to their specific needs and goals, considering their physical and mental well-being.

Several Ways Comfort Keepers Can Help

Clients and their families can feel confident in our caregivers because they have been carefully selected for their ability to empathize with others and receive special training in caring for seniors with Alzheimer's disease and other kinds of dementia.

Our caregivers also make use of the Comfort Keepers Interactive Caregiving System. Using Interactive Caregiving, we get to know our clients more personally, learning about their hobbies, preferences, and even their former lives in the process. Mental and physical activities can now be studied together. Our clients and caregivers establish bonds through time, listening to music from their favorite era, reading old classics, or talking about current events.

Our Services Include:

  • Personalized in-home care programs that take into account both physical and non-physical requirements and goals
  • Activities that are entertaining, mentally stimulating, and valuable to your physical and emotional health. These activities are part of the dementia care plan since they consider your loved one's interests and abilities to improve their quality of life and physical health.
  • Nutrition and fitness advice from a doctor and companionship, respite care, and other necessities are available.
  • Medical specialists, support groups, and resources are provided for family caregivers.
