Comprehensive In-Home Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care in Vernon Kelowna

Dementia is a general term for a range of memory and thinking problems that interfere with daily life. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia, but there are others, like vascular dementia and Lewy body dementia. Each presents differently, but all require thoughtful, individualized care.

At Qualicare Vernon Kelowna, we support families navigating any form of dementia, not just Alzheimer’s, ensuring that your loved one receives the right support at every stage.

In the early stages, individuals with Alzheimer’s may still manage some daily tasks on their own, but as the disease progresses, the need for assistance becomes more apparent. Simple activities like dressing, eating, and managing medications can become increasingly difficult. This is where compassionate support is essential.

Our caregivers help by offering gentle reminders, assisting with personal hygiene, and ensuring that medications are taken on time to prevent risks. We also provide encouragement to foster independence when possible, while maintaining a safe environment for those who may experience confusion or forgetfulness.

Start by getting informed and building a support system. You’ll want a care team that includes medical providers, family, and professional in-home help. We can help you create a care plan that evolves with your loved one’s needs—from simple reminders and companionship to more advanced care.

Helping someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia requires patience, understanding, and a calm, structured environment. Assisting with daily routines like eating, dressing, and personal care ensures safety while promoting independence. Engaging in memory-boosting activities, such as puzzles or simple conversations, can also improve cognitive function and emotional well-being.

One of the best ways to support someone with Alzheimer’s is by working with a caregiver. A professional caregiver can provide consistent assistance, reduce anxiety, and help your loved one maintain a sense of normalcy, ensuring they receive the right care at every stage of the disease.

We carefully match caregivers based on the unique needs, preferences, and personality of your loved one. Our caregivers are trained in dementia care, ensuring they provide respectful, consistent support that fosters trust and familiarity.

We ensure the highest quality of care through ongoing caregiver training, regular assessments, and continuous communication with families. Our Care Experts oversee the care process to make sure every need is being met and adjust plans as necessary to ensure your loved one’s comfort and safety.
