Most often, after an initial diagnosis of Alzheimer's or a related dementia illness, families are faced with difficult decisions about providing care for their loved one. Working parents with children are faced with new stresses to balance work and family. Families who are separated by great distances must make hard choices about how to provide in-home care for dementia or Alzheimer’s care services. Sometimes nursing homes or special care retirement centers seem to be the only options. However, private care for seniors offers a compassionate alternative, allowing your loved one to receive personalized support in the comfort of home. You do have a choice and we can help.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia. Dementia is a classification of degenerative cognitive diseases that can cause problems with memory, thinking, and behavior. With Alzheimer’s, symptoms usually develop slowly, and will become worse over time. Severe or advanced Alzheimer’s interferes with daily tasks and day-to-day living. Alzheimer's disease accounts for 50 to 80 percent of dementia cases.

How Is That Different Than Aging?

It’s important to recognize that dementia and Alzheimer’s are not a normal part of the aging process. While cognitive abilities may change or slow throughout the aging process, Alzheimer’s can make it hard to function on a daily basis. Alzheimer’s can also appear earlier in life; this is called early-onset, can affect adults by as early as their 40s or 50s.

What Are Common Symptoms of Alzheimer's?

A common early symptom of Alzheimer’s is difficulty remembering new information or adjusting to new changes in daily life. This is because Alzheimer’s disease begins in the part of the brain that is dedicated to learning and processing new information. As the disease becomes worse, symptoms can include worsening confusion about time and life events, feeling lost or confused, mood swings, changes in behavior and personality, or difficulty speaking, walking, or swallowing.

How Does Alzheimer’s Develop?

Alzheimer’s is a progressive disease, meaning that it will get worse, or have a greater impact on health, over time. There are 7 stages of Alzheimer's Disease. In the early stages, memory loss may be minor, or not a primary symptom. In later stages, memory loss is significant and impacts an individual’s ability to concentrate, complete tasks, recognize others, and keep track of life events.

What Care Is Available for Seniors with Alzheimer's in Canada?

Alzheimer’s care is dedicated to the treatments and therapies that help patients have the best quality of life possible. There is no current cure for Alzheimer’s, but research is ongoing and has given us a wide range of treatment possibilities. There are social and behavioral treatments, medication treatments, and lifestyle changes that can all help moderate the symptoms.
