6 Signs That Tell Your Loved One Needs Alzheimer’s Care

Providing Alzheimer’s care can be quite a challenging task for families and caregivers. However, making a decision for your loved one about whether they need Alzheimer’s care at home or not requires a lot of thinking. As Alzheimer’s or dementia is a progressive disease, it is important to make the right decision for your loved one before it is too late.
However, if you have been wondering whether your loved one needs Alzheimer’s care, here are the top six signs you should look out for.

The top 6 signs are:

Difficulty In Handling Medication Management

Are your loved ones forgetting to take their medication on time? If yes, check the number of times they have forgotten to take medicine. If you see that they are often forgetful, then it’s time to look for trained professionals who can help with medication management. Forgetting medication can cause significant changes in the body, leading to medical complications. Therefore, it is important to keep a record of their medication routine and provide them with medicines from time to time.

Forgetting or Missing Medical Appointments

Medical appointments play an important role as medicines help reduce the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. If you see that your loved one frequently misses their medical appointments, then having a caregiver who can provide Alzheimer’s care in your home is a good idea. Also, the caregiver takes care of the medical appointments as well. 

Difficulty In Maintaining Household Responsibility

For someone diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, it is very difficult for them to take care of household responsibilities. For instance, maintaining bills, doing dishes, and so on become difficult tasks to accomplish. Therefore, the task of maintaining a household becomes a tough one as the person with memory issues faces challenges in carrying out the task. Hiring a caregiver is an ideal solution, as the in-home caregiver looks after your loved one while taking care of their safety and hygiene at home.

Changes In Personality 

Brain cells die due to Alzheimer’s, which plays a significant role in personality change. Therefore, people with memory issues often get upset or seem disinterested in things. Similarly, due to changes in brain structure and disturbed surroundings like loud noise, crowded spaces can cause frustration and confusion amongst them. It requires immense patience to help them out, provide care for them, understand them, and help them.

Complexity In Speech and Communication

Communication becomes a challenging task as people with memory issues have difficulty communicating their needs. They are forgetful about simple words like comb, water, and others. Memory issues diminish the level of communication, and things worsen with this. Therefore, it is important to get in-home care for your loved one to help them with their basic needs and treat them with love and dignity. 

Significant Changes In Weight or Weight Loss

With memory issues, people often forget to have a meal and forget their cooking skills. Therefore, you see them growing weak and pale over time. As Alzheimer’s disease is progressive, things get difficult in the advancing years. Having a caregiver at home makes things easier, as care providers are responsible for providing them with nutritious meals and taking care of them.
