FAQs

Answers From a Trusted Memory Care Provider | St. Helens

Is memory care only for people with Alzheimer’s?

The array for memory care at our community in St. Helens extends its services to individuals who experience memory loss from Alzheimer’s and other conditions. Memory care is designed to address the needs and challenges associated with various memory conditions. This type of care is tailored to support individuals with different types of memory loss, ensuring they receive the appropriate care, assistance, and resources needed to enhance their quality of life.

What is memory healthcare?

Memory healthcare involves enhancing and preserving cognitive function and memory abilities. Some things that might be recommended include adjustments to lifestyles by adopting a nutritious diet, adopting regular physical activity, sleeping more, and getting a hold of one’s stress levels. Mental stimulation through cognitive training and engaging activities is an integral part of memory healthcare as well.

How do I know if my loved one needs memory care?

Deciding whether your loved one requires memory care or not involves assessing their cognitive abilities, daily functioning, well-being, and impact on caregivers. Factors to consider are:

  • Memory Loss: Memory care would be suitable for individuals who experience significant, progressive memory loss that disrupts daily life and responsibilities.
  • Problems Functioning: If your loved one is struggling with completing daily activities, such as getting dressed, bathing, making dinner, or managing medications, memory care could be the appropriate solution.
  • Well-Being Concerns: Memory loss can lead to wandering, getting lost, or forgetting to perform critical tasks. It’s advisable to consider a memory care community where the welfare of your loved one is the top priority.
  • Behavior Changes: Behaving differently or experiencing unusual behavioral shifts in personality or mood (e.g., heightened agitation, confusion, or withdrawal) may indicate the need for specialized care.
  • Caregiver Burnout: Overwhelm and exhaustion from the demands of caregiving can affect family members or primary caregivers. Exploring memory care services can be advantageous for both the individual in need of care and their caregivers.
