Dementia Care
Most people have heard the term ‘dementia’ and understand it as a brain or memory-related disease, and many people will know someone who has dementia.
However, very few understand the true and complex nature of the condition. Dementia is an umbrella term used to refer to a range of neurological conditions that affect the brain and include those that have similar symptoms, including cognitive decline, a loss of function, and memory loss.
Although there are many forms of dementia, most sufferers will notice similar changes in behavior.
At Kingdom Health, we’re dedicated to providing high-quality, private in-home care services that make it possible for people to remain in their homes, living independently, for as long as possible. This includes in-home dementia care.
Three out of five people with dementia will go missing as some individuals with Alzheimer’s disease may become disoriented when they are outside their home or in unfamiliar surroundings.

When is it time for in-home dementia care?
Many people experiencing the early stages of dementia can live happily and independently with little to no assistance. However, as their condition progresses, a person’s care needs will increase, and the demands on loved ones can become more difficult to manage.
The introduction of in-home care can help those with dementia to remain at home, living safely, for quite some time, and ease the strain on loved ones caring for them.
If you or your loved one is beginning to find everyday tasks difficult to perform, it may be the time to seek out the assistance of a professional in-home care provider.
