Alzheimer's and Dementia In-Home Care in New York City

Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care • August 31, 2023

Why are personalized care plans for seniors with Alzheimer's so important?

Caring for a senior loved one with Alzheimer's disease is a unique journey that requires specialized attention and support. At 7 Day Home Care, we understand the challenges families face when dealing with Alzheimer's and dementia. That's why we offer personalized Alzheimer's care plans tailored to the unique needs of each senior we serve in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Nassau County, and Suffolk County, New York. In this article, we will explore what personalized Alzheimer's care plans entail, their significance, and how they can make a substantial difference in the lives of seniors and their families.


The Growing Impact of Alzheimer's Disease

Before exploring the use of personalized care plans, it's crucial to understand the scope of Alzheimer's disease's impact on seniors and their families. Here are some compelling statistics from the Alzheimer's Association which illustrate the challenges of the disease:


  1. Prevalence of Alzheimer's Disease:
  • According to the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for about 60-80% of all dementia cases in the United States.


    2.   Rising Cases:

  • More than 6.2 million Americans aged 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's disease in 2023, and this number is projected to increase to 12.7 million by 2050 if no cure is found.


    3.   Caregiver Impact:

  • Over 11 million unpaid caregivers provide care for people with Alzheimer's or other dementias in the United States.


What Are Personalized Alzheimer's Care Plans?

Personalized Alzheimer's care plans are comprehensive, individualized strategies designed to address the specific needs, preferences, and challenges of each senior with Alzheimer's or related dementia. These plans are created in collaboration with the senior, their family, and a team of experienced caregivers and healthcare professionals.


Tailoring Care to the Individual

Every individual experiences Alzheimer's disease differently. Personalized care plans take into account:

  • Stage of Alzheimer's: Care plans are adjusted to match the progression of the disease, ensuring that care remains effective as needs evolve.
  • Medical History: Understanding a senior's medical history helps in managing co-existing conditions or medications.
  • Preferences: Personalized care plans respect the senior's preferences, from daily routines to favorite activities and foods.
  • Safety Measures: Plans incorporate safety measures to prevent wandering, falls, and other common risks associated with Alzheimer's.

The Components of Personalized Alzheimer's Care Plans

  1. Daily Routine:
  • Establishing a consistent daily routine can help reduce anxiety and confusion.

    2.   Medication Reminders:

  • Ensuring the senior takes prescribed medications as needed.

    3.   Nutrition and Meal Planning:

  • Providing balanced meals tailored to dietary requirements and preferences.

    4.   Memory Care Activities:

  • Engaging in memory-stimulating activities to slow cognitive decline.

    5.   Companionship:

  • Providing companionship and emotional support to combat feelings of loneliness.

    6.   Home Safety Assessments:

  • Identifying potential hazards and implementing safety measures.


The Benefits of Personalized Care Plans Improved Quality of Life

  • According to a study in the journal "Aging & Mental Health," personalized care plans have been shown to improve the quality of life for seniors with Alzheimer's by promoting independence and reducing anxiety.


Delayed Nursing Home Placement


Reduced Caregiver Stress

  • Personalized care plans not only benefit seniors but also alleviate stress and burden on family caregivers, as reported by the Alzheimer's Association.


Personalized Alzheimer's care plans are a lifeline for seniors living with this challenging disease. At 7 Day Home Care, we recognize the importance of tailoring care to the individual, ensuring that each senior receives the support they need to live with dignity and comfort.


Our team of dedicated caregivers, trained in Alzheimer's and dementia care, is committed to implementing personalized care plans that make a positive impact on the lives of seniors and their families. We believe that every senior deserves the opportunity to age in place while receiving the highest level of care.


If you or your loved one is in need of specialized Alzheimer's care in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Nassau County, or Suffolk County, New York, please don't hesitate to reach out to 7 Day Home Care. We are here to provide compassionate, personalized care that truly makes a difference.

Overnight in-home health aide care for safety and peace of mind

The 3 AM Dilemma: When a Home Care Agency Becomes a Lifeline

By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care • March 3, 2025
The 3AM Dilemma: When a Home Care Agency Becomes a Lifeline Proactive planning for overnight care is one of the most effective ways to safeguard a loved one’s health, safety, and overall well-being. Many medical emergencies—such as falls, confusion from dementia, or complications from chronic conditions—happen at night when family caregivers are asleep and options for immediate help are limited. By arranging overnight home care in advance, families can prevent these crises rather than react to them. A trained caregiver ensures that seniors and individuals with health concerns receive consistent monitoring, mobility assistance, medication reminders, and help with toileting needs, all of which significantly reduce the likelihood of hospitalization. Beyond safety, a structured nighttime routine promotes better sleep, reduces anxiety, and improves long-term health outcomes. Having a professional caregiver in place also eases the burden on family members, allowing them to rest knowing their loved one is well cared for. At 7 Day Home Care, we help families develop customized care plans that address specific overnight needs, ensuring continuous support that enhances quality of life and prevents avoidable medical emergencies. 7 Day Home Care provides 24 hour care, overnight care in Manhattan , Queens , Brooklyn , Nassau County, and Suffolk County, New York.

What to Do When Elderly Parents Refuse Home Care: A Step-by-Step Guide

By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care • January 31, 2025
What to Do When Elderly Parents Refuse Home Care: A Step-by-Step Guide Many elderly parents resist and outright refuse in-home care, often due to a deep-seated fear of losing independence, privacy concerns, or a lack of awareness about their own declining abilities. At 7 Day Home Care , we understand that this resistance can be frustrating and emotionally draining for families who only want the best for their loved ones. Seniors may perceive accepting help as an admission of weakness or believe they can manage on their own, even when daily tasks become overwhelming or unsafe. Some fear that bringing in a caregiver signals the first step toward losing control over their lives or being forced into a nursing home. Others worry about cost, unfamiliarity with caregivers, or cultural stigma surrounding receiving assistance. Overcoming this challenge requires patience, open communication, and a strategic approach that emphasizes safety, dignity, and independence rather than limitations. Families can ease this transition by involving their loved ones in the decision-making process, addressing their specific concerns, and starting with small, trial-based care visits. At 7 Day Home Care , we specialize in working with reluctant seniors, providing compassionate, customized support to help them feel comfortable and in control while ensuring they receive the care they need to age safely in their own homes. 7 Day Home Care provides in-home care services in Manhattan , Queens , Brooklyn , Nassau County, and Suffolk County, New York.
