Qualified Caregivers Make a Difference!

We understand the special needs of people with Alzheimer’s disease and our trained professionals can provide much needed one-on-one assistance.

Cognitive Retention Therapy™ is a customized memory enhancement program known to be an effective and practical program to help slow the progression of symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. It is helpful in maintaining and increasing the individual’s quality of life, level of independence, and the quality of their relationships with loved ones. When working with a trained In-home Care caregiver, specially developed exercises help stimulate the individual’s brain, contributing to their ability to perform daily activities more independently and enabling them to remain connected and engaged for a longer period of time.

Appropriate for those with following stages of Alzheimer’s Disease:

• Early to mid stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
• Brain injury that is caused by stroke or trauma.
• Age-related memory challenges.

To provide a cognitive retention program specific to your loved one, our skilled caregiver utilizes memory exercises, a workbook, journal and an information gathering process. Therapy begins by first listening to and understanding the stories and details of each person’s life – who they are, where they were born, where they grew up. These all become part of the individual’s specific program. Mental exercises and physical activities are designed to appeal to each individual’s most familiar personal interests and to reinforce past associations and memories.

A standard regimen of short mental exercises is the foundation of this type of therapy. By structuring activities geared to tap into the memory of common subjects, events, and experiences in a person’s past, this stimulates a recall of events and information, and, in the process, improves and maintains a person’s cognitive thinking ability.
