It can be incredibly hard to watch your loved one change due to dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. An overarching term for the cognitive impairments that affect thinking, memory and decision-making capabilities, dementia can make even ordinary, everyday tasks a challenge.

The most common type of dementia, Alzheimer’s, can take even recent recall away. Your parent, relative or other loved one may not remember a conversation you had minutes earlier or understand that you are still nearby when you have stepped out of the room. Normal walking or talking can become difficult. The person you knew can become someone else entirely.

The nature of the disease presents unique challenges when administering dementia care at home. Many times, the dementia caregiver might feel overwhelmed or unsure what to do. This is why Custom Home Care provides dementia care in Chicago: We can give you and your loved one the support you need from experienced, well-trained caregivers — all managed by qualified nurses.
