Dementia Care

Dementia Care

Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care at Doctiplus

Living with Alzheimer’s or dementia changes daily life, but it does not erase a person’s identity, dignity, or need for independence. Care at Doctiplus focuses on helping individuals stay safe, comfortable, and connected while continuing familiar routines in their own home. Support is built around who the person is today, not just the diagnosis.

How Dementia Care Helps Day-to-Day Life

How Dementia Care Helps Day-to-Day Life

Care is designed to support independence while reducing stress for both the individual and their family. The goal is not to take over, but to step in where help is truly needed.

Support may include:

  • Assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and meals

  • Gentle reminders for medications and routines

  • Supervision to reduce fall risk and confusion

  • Calm companionship to ease anxiety and loneliness

  • Help maintaining familiar habits and surroundings

Care happens at home, where routines feel natural and comfort matters most.

Common Signs That May Need Extra Care

Misplacing items repeatedly

Keys, glasses, or important papers often end up in unusual places, causing frustration and anxiety. This happens more frequently and disrupts daily routines.

Pulling away from social activities

Someone who once enjoyed conversations or gatherings may start avoiding people, calls, or outings, often due to confusion, low confidence, or feeling overwhelmed.

 

Forgetting recent events or conversations

Recent talks, appointments, or plans are quickly forgotten, even if they were discussed earlier the same day, leading to repeated questions or missed commitments.

Changes in mood, judgment, or personality

You may notice sudden mood swings, poor decision-making, irritability, or behavior that feels out of character and difficult to explain.

Support for Families and Caregivers

Dementia affects the whole family, not just the person diagnosed. Many caregivers juggle work, home responsibilities, and emotional stress while trying to do everything themselves.

Care helps by:

  • Giving family caregivers time to rest and recharge

  • Reducing burnout and emotional strain

  • Providing peace of mind through reliable supervision

  • Allowing families to focus on being present, not overwhelmed

Having dependable support in place often prevents crisis situations later on.

Care That Supports the Whole Family

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We offer flexible scheduling, including daytime visits, overnight care, or full 24/7 live-in support—whatever best fits your loved one's needs and gives your family peace of mind.
Will the same caregiver return each visit?
We prioritize consistency. Whenever possible, we assign the same caregiver to build trust, familiarity, and a strong relationship—which is especially important for those with dementia.
