Alzheimer Care Home in Kansas City

An Alzheimer care home provides skilled nursing care to individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease, dementia and memory loss. The facility you choose is an important step. It is not a decision to be made lightly.

We understand that most senior adults prefer the comfort and familiarity of their own home. They feel more secure at home. They also want to retain a sense of control over their own lives. Unfortunately, people age and the effects of Alzheimer’s or dementia become more advanced. Even the simplest of tasks can become too difficult. The risks of falling and being injured are increased. An Alzheimer care home can be the best choice for someone with dementia.

Seeking residency in an assisted living community or Alzheimer care home does not necessarily mean that senior adults have to completely relinquish their independence. There are many reasons why they can benefit from this particular lifestyle.

An Alzheimer Care Home can:

  • Provide a safe environment. The facility is designed with features to prevent injury.

  • Better care, and assistance. Fully trained and licensed caregivers provide one-on-one care.

  • Present opportunities to promote brain health. Games and activities are available to entertain and keep the mind engaged.

  • Encourage activities that increase physical mobility. Fitness programs and exercise help keep individuals active.

Additional benefits of an Alzheimer care home are:

  • Personalized Living Space. Residents are encouraged to bring along personal possessions and belongings that are important to them. A favorite chair, lamp and bedding, for example.

  • Social Engagement. Maintaining an active social life enables senior adults to mingle with others and become involved in activities. This can increase their self-esteem and help build confidence, and give seniors a greater sense of independence. 

  • Staying Fit! An Alzheimer care home can provide physical fitness programs to help seniors maintain or even increase mobility; they can walk around and stay more active without having to rely on assistance from others as much. Even if they aren’t physically able to do a lot of exercises, there are other opportunities for promoting socialization and challenging them mentally.

Senior adults with dementia of any kind can become depressed – the loss of independence and feelings of loneliness and abandonment can cause them to withdraw from society. An Alzheimer care home can provide alternatives to the care and assistance of the senior adult that balances out in such a way that they can still interact with others and retain a sense of self.
