Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care

Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care
Compassionate, Structured Support — In the Comfort of Home
Caring for a loved one with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease can feel overwhelming, emotional, and isolating. Changes in memory, behavior, and communication often leave families unsure of what to do next — or afraid they’re doing something wrong.
At Alta Living Care, we believe dementia care is not about control or correction. It’s about understanding, patience, safety, and dignity — for both the individual and the family caring for them.
We provide calm, consistent, in-home dementia care designed to reduce stress, preserve independence, and help families continue caring for their loved one at home as long as possible.
Our Program, partnered with LearningRx and Silver Tsunami

How Alta Living Care Supports Individuals with Dementia
Our caregivers are trained to work with the person — not against the disease.
Our approach includes:
-
Redirection instead of correction
(We don’t argue or “fix” — we guide gently.) -
Calm, respectful communication
(Tone, body language, and pacing matter.) -
Routine-based care
(Familiar patterns reduce confusion.) -
Preserving dignity and autonomy
(Choice is offered whenever possible.) -
Fall-prevention and safety awareness
(Especially during transitions and evenings.) -
Meaningful engagement
(Conversation, music, hobbies, and presence.)
We meet your loved one where they are — emotionally, cognitively, and physically.
Common Questions Families Ask
Is it better for someone with dementia to stay at home or go to a facility?
For many individuals, staying in a familiar environment helps reduce confusion and anxiety. In-home care can often delay or prevent the need for a facility.
What if my loved one resists help?
Resistance is common. Our caregivers are trained to use redirection, timing, and calm reassurance rather than force.
Can care start part-time?
Yes. Many families begin with a few hours per week and increase support as needed.
Do you help with nighttime or evening confusion?
Yes. We can help with evening routines and sundowning behaviors.
How do we know when it’s time to get help?
If you’re asking the question — it’s usually time for support, even if just to give you a break.
What Dementia Care Looks Like at Home
Dementia does not look the same for every person — and care should never be one-size-fits-all.
Our caregivers focus on:
-
Maintaining familiar routines
-
Supporting daily activities at a comfortable pace
-
Reducing anxiety and agitation
-
Encouraging engagement without pressure
-
Promoting safety while preserving independence
Care can start small and grow as needs increase.
Support for the Family (Not Just the Client)
Dementia affects the entire household — especially spouses and adult children.
We don’t just provide care. We support you.
Families often tell us:
-
“I feel guilty being frustrated.”
-
“I don’t know how to communicate anymore.”
-
“I’m exhausted, but I don’t want a facility.”
We help by:
-
Coaching families on communication strategies
-
Helping spouses understand behavior changes
-
Offering guidance during difficult transitions
-
Watching for caregiver burnout
-
Creating a shared care plan everyone understands
You are not failing.
You are doing something incredibly hard — and you don’t have to do it alone.
Improving and stopping cognitive decline
While dementia cannot always be reversed, research shows that healthy lifestyle habits can help slow cognitive decline and improve cognition and support overall brain function. Regular movement, meaningful social connection, mentally engaging activities, proper nutrition, quality sleep, and calm daily routines all play an important role. A supportive, familiar environment — where a person feels safe, respected, and engaged — can reduce anxiety and confusion, allowing them to function at their best and maintain quality of life for as long as possible.
