Home Care for Those With Alzheimer’s

The number of people living with Alzheimer’s disease is growing rapidly. An estimated 5.5 million people in the U.S. have Alzheimer’s disease but it is estimated only 1 in 4 cases gets diagnosed.

5.3 million people in the US with Alzheimer’s are 65 or older and the need for quality care options is increasing fast. The responsibility of taking care of an aging loved one often falls on family members which can introduce stress and other factors that are difficult to prepare for. Alzheimer’s is poised to become even more common as the population ages and caregiver plans for the future should be a priority for families across the country.

In-home care for those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia is an option for caregiving that allows the person with Alzheimer’s to stay in their own home. Griswold Home Care offers a wide range of in-home services so you can get a customized plan designed to fit your needs. Our service starts with an at-home consultation so we can make sure we understand exactly what type of care is needed and match you with a caregiver with similar interests. Our caregivers are trained to give compassionate care so you can be sure a loved one is safe.
