Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care in Northfield, NJ

When a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or dementia, family members often try to step in and become primary caregivers. While this is one of the kindest and most respectful things a person can do, it can also be very stressful. As a result, it is common for these family members to quickly become burned out and emotionally drained. When Alzheimer’s disease continually progresses, your loved one will need an increasing amount of care to maintain their lifestyle. Instead of going through this alone, Comfort Keepers of Northfield offers specialized dementia and Alzheimer’s care services to lend you a helping hand.

When Should You Consider Dementia Care Services?

In the early stages of dementia and Alzheimer's, an individual will have little to no changes in functioning. However, as their disease progresses, they undergo a decline in cognitive ability which increases their need for treatment. During the later stages of dementia, an individual may need round-the-clock assistance. Comfort Keepers in-home care could be beneficial if you notice any of these symptoms of mild to severe dementia:

Cognitive Changes

• Memory loss and difficulty remembering names
• Difficulty communicating or finding words
• Difficulty with visual or spatial abilities, like getting lost while driving
• Difficulty reasoning or problem-solving
• Difficulty planning, organizing, and handling complex tasks
• Confusion and disorientation

Psychological Changes

• Personality changes
• Depression and anxiety
• Inappropriate behavior
• Paranoia
• Hallucinations
• Agitation

Each individual has a different experience with Alzheimer’s and dementia, but whatever stage of care is needed, we can help ensure your loved one receives quality care in the comfort of their home.
