Navigating changing needs, preserving familiar household routines
Changes in memory, orientation, judgment, or the ability to manage familiar routines can make everyday activities more difficult for a person with dementia and may increase the amount of assistance needed at home. Dementia care provides in-home support centered on the person’s established routines, daily activities, and need for caregiver oversight. For families in Lanham, Maryland, this service may be considered when a person with dementia needs regular assistance at home and family members cannot provide all of the needed support themselves.
How It Works
Dementia Care may include:
- Supervision during everyday home routines
- Assistance with routine daily activities
- Verbal reminders and prompts when appropriate
- Support with maintaining familiar daily routines
- Caregiver presence during periods when additional oversight is needed
What to Expect
Dementia care is provided in the person’s home and is generally incorporated into familiar routines rather than requiring the individual to adapt to a new setting. The caregiver provides assistance and supervision according to the person’s circumstances and the scope of services arranged. The level of support may change as the person’s day-to-day needs change, with the specific responsibilities remaining within the agreed service scope.
