Provide compassionate, personalised care for loved ones with dementia or Alzheimer's through Home Instead Enfield's expert daily, live-in, and respite care services.
Caring for a loved one with dementia or Alzheimer’s can feel overwhelming. Have you ever wondered what the best approach is to ensure they feel comfortable and supported at home? Understanding the differences between dementia and Alzheimer’s is the first step in finding the right care, and that’s where Home Instead Enfield can help.
Despite their frequent association, dementia and Alzheimer’s are not synonymous. The term dementia broadly refers to symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, and challenges in problem-solving. Alzheimer’s, on the other hand, is the most common cause of dementia and involves progressive changes in the brain that worsen over time.
Dementia may show subtle signs in the early stages, such as difficulty remembering recent events, changes in personality, or becoming easily confused. These symptoms can gradually affect your loved one’s ability to manage daily tasks. Recognising these signs early enables you to seek the appropriate care sooner.
With Alzheimer’s, symptoms typically start with forgetfulness, such as misplacing items or struggling to recall names. As the condition progresses, confusion increases, and behavioural changes, like suspicion or mood swings, may appear. In later stages, individuals may lose the ability to communicate and require full-time care.
At Home Instead Enfield, we understand that every person is different, which is why we create personalised care plans to suit each individual’s unique needs. Our care professionals, trained to offer compassionate, expert care, can assist with daily tasks or provide emotional support.
Our daily home care services help individuals maintain their independence while ensuring their safety. From assistance with household chores to support with personal care, our team is there every step of the way, helping your loved one stay in their familiar surroundings.
For those needing more extensive support, our live-in care option provides round-the-clock assistance. Having a care professional at home ensures safety, comfort, and peace of mind for both the individual and their family.
Overnight care is ideal for those who need extra support during the night. Our care professionals are on hand to help with mobility, restroom visits, or just to provide reassurance, ensuring a restful night’s sleep.
