Memory Care
Specialized Support for the Journey Through Memory Loss
You get better because we are better
Cognitive decline changes the way a person perceives the world, but it doesn’t change their need for love and respect. At Ladner Caregivers, we use a “person-centered” approach. We don’t try to pull the client back into our reality; instead, we meet them where they are, creating a “failure-free” environment where they can feel successful and safe.
Routine Management
For those with memory loss, a predictable day is a safe day. We establish consistent schedules for meals, activities, and sleep, which significantly reduces the "sundowning" effect and lessens anxiety for the client.
Cognitive Stimulation
We use specialized techniques to engage the mind. This isn't about "testing" memory, but rather stimulating it through music therapy, familiar scents, and activities that tap into long-term memories and "muscle memory."
Safety Supervision
Confusion can lead to wandering or accidental misuse of home appliances. We provide 24/7 vigilance to ensure the home remains a secure environment, giving family members the freedom to sleep soundly at night.
Family Guidance
You shouldn't have to navigate this alone. We provide families with the tools and communication strategies (like "validation therapy") to help you connect with your loved one even as the disease progresses.
