Alzheimer’s Home Care That Cares: Real Families, Real Solutions

Understanding the Journey: Why Home Makes All the Difference

For many families, the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease feels overwhelming. Suddenly, you’re faced with new behaviors, memory loss, and a constant balancing act between your loved one’s safety and desire for independence. 

At Geriatric Care Solution, we see this every day—and we want you to know you’re not alone. Specialized Alzheimer’s home care and dementia care at home aren’t just about assistance—they’re about preserving dignity, comfort, and connection at every stage of life.

 Case Study: Mrs. Thompson’s Story 

Mrs. Thompson, a retired teacher, was diagnosed with early stage Alzheimer’s at 74. Her daughter, Anna, noticed Mom was forgetting appointments and sometimes left the stove on. Together, they called Geriatric Care Solution, seeking in-home care to keep Mrs. Thompson safe—without leaving the house she’s called home for 40 years.

We paired Mrs. Thompson with Linda, a skilled companion caregiver who established a daily routine, organized medications, and filled her days with favorite activities like gardening and reading together. As the disease progressed, the care plan adapted—adding more personal care services and respite care for Anna. 

Result: Mrs. Thompson stayed at home, surrounded by family and memories, while Anna reclaimed her role as loving daughter—not just caregiver.

 What Makes Alzheimer’s Home Care Different?

 Q&A with Our Dementia Care Expert

Q: What is the biggest challenge families face with Alzheimer’s home care? 

A: “The biggest challenge is realizing you don’t have to do it all yourself. Many families wait too long—by then, both the caregiver and loved one are exhausted. Early support leads to better outcomes and a higher quality of life.” 

— Patrice Jordan, Certified Dementia Practitioner, Geriatric Care Solution

Q: How can in-home care help with challenging behaviors like sundowning or wandering? 

A: “Trained caregivers use routines and soothing activities to minimize triggers. We also create safe environments and keep family in the loop with regular care meetings.”

Q: Can you provide both personal care and companion care? 

A: “Absolutely! Our Alzheimer’s home care plans are flexible and evolve as needs change—from helping with breakfast and personal hygiene to engaging in memory games or simply offering companionship.”
