According to information provided by the World Health Organization, more than 55 million people around the world live with dementia. The syndrome is typically considered something only the elderly can develop, but the reality is it affects people of all ages. Dementia, which causes a person's cognitive function to deteriorate, often progresses until the person affected by it requires around-the-clock in-home dementia care from qualified providers like the ones at Comfort Keepers in Weatherford.

The Importance of In-Home Dementia Care

Health organizations around the world agree that it is a good idea to keep a loved one who has dementia at home for as long as possible. Doing so offers a variety of benefits. Perhaps the most important is that the client remains in a familiar environment. Familiarity may help to lessen day-to-day confusion and even help the person affected retain their memories of loved ones, places, and things for longer.

Routine is also important for people who have dementia and may be easier to stick to if they can stay in their own homes for as long as possible. Everything from adhering to a certain schedule and eating the same diet can increase a client's ability to retain memories and remain mentally and physically healthy. This is especially true if they live with or near loved ones who can coordinate daily care and spend time with them.

Finally, having someone provide in-home dementia care allows for more customized and individualized care than what would be available in a nursing facility. A caregiver who works one-on-one with a client provides companionship, helps the client stick to routines, and ensures they stay active and healthy for as long as possible. Furthermore, an in-home caregiver is more likely to notice changes in health or behavior that indicates the progression of the disease.
