At Valley Home Care, we provide a broad range of specialized home care services. We offer deep expertise and experience in assisting families dealing with memory loss issues, hospice care and other conditions that require more intensive one-on-one assistance.
Memory Care
Memory care is a vague, general term that can mean many things and set off a lot of alarms in families when symptoms occur in a loved one. There are a lot of medical reasons why memory loss happens but the most important thing to understand is that in a large percentage of cases, elders can remain in their homes with the right type of care.
Home care that deals with memory loss is a special type of care. It’s not medical care that happens in a hospital setting, but rather a very personalized type of one-on-one care that addresses the unique needs of those impacted by the condition.
At Valley Home Care, we know that many families need help caring for an elder suffering from memory loss. As much as they would like to be there to help themselves, they can’t be around all the time. That’s where we come in and lend another set of eyes, ears, helping hands and an empathetic heart. Our Caregivers unburden families of responsibilities they would love to perform but are unable to because life gets in the way.
Memory loss home care is very personal. It’s keeping elders engaged in the present because it the place they live in most often. It’s performing activities together that keeps them active and engaged. It can be simple things like watching a TV program or movie, playing a board game, cooking a meal or having friends stop by to socialize. Our Caregivers understand the mindset of those affected by memory loss. They know that the safest, best place for your loved one is not at an assisted living facility, but in the safe, secure and comfortable environment of their own home.
We wish we could wave a magic wand and do what medical science can’t do – find a cure for many of the memory loss conditions. Unfortunately, we can’t. What we can do is the next best thing – watch over your loved ones with the same sense of care and compassion you would give them if you were able.
We’ve learned a lot in the many years we’ve been providing home care for seniors suffering from memory loss. What we’ve learned is everyone we watch over is special which is why we’ve strived to provide families with a higher standard of memory loss home care.
Talk to us. We listen well. Being great listeners is one of the things that make us a great home care agency for families like yours.
Hospice Care Support
When hospice care is required, there is no better place to get it than at home. When a loved one’s health transitions past the curative phase, specialized home care assistance can help them spend their remaining days in the comfortable and caring environment of their own home.
Our Caregivers can provide around-the-clock, one-on-one assistance that allows a loved one to spend the final stage of life close to their family and friends. They understand the exceptional needs of those approaching the end of life and their sense of compassion for all involved is authentic and exemplified in the assistance they provide.
At Valley Home Care, we can coordinate with medical professionals and hospice agencies in ways to supplement the palliative care an elder is currently receiving. We help with meal preparation, personal hygiene, comfort issues and we understand the importance of caring companionship for everyone struggling at this difficult time.
Your loved ones will never be alone. Our Caregivers will always be there to lend and hand and a heart at the times they are needed most.
24-Hour Continuous Care
Certain medical conditions and post-hospital recovery situations call for a higher level of 24-hour around the clock care. If this specialized level of care can be provided at home, it can eliminate the option of your loved one spending this time in an institutional-type facility.
Whether the need for continuous care is short or for an extended period of time, Valley Home Care’s experienced and compassionate Caregivers can provide your loved one with the heightened level of care that keeps them at home and near their families. We keep your loved one safe and comfortable by giving them all the assistance they need from household chores to meal preparations, personal hygiene assistance and medication monitoring.
Our experienced and empathetic approach to 24 hour continuous care gives families peace of mind knowing their loved one is being watched over by the most highly trained Caregivers in the Valley.
