In my almost 18 years of running my Comfort Keepers home care business, I have never had the children of clients come back and tell me that they regret making it possible for their parents to stay in their own homes until they died. Not one.

don't neglect your loved one's medical appointments when they have dementia. A very important part of living with someone with dementia is maintaining medical treatment, appointments and care. Some of the worst parts of the disease can be brought on by other conditions left undiagnosed or complications due to medication. Keep regular appointments with physicians and hire home care if needed to keep your loved one in the best shape possible. Good health is one important way to slow the progression of the dementia as well.

Comfort Keepers is here to help - we specialize in live-in dementia care.
