Qualified Caregivers Making 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 Home Care Helper caregiver, 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:

 • 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.

Benefits:
 • Innovative and non-invasive
 • Research proven
 • Customized to the individual – it’s all about them!
 • Participants really enjoy the process
 • Can be used with or without prescribed Alzheimer's medications
 • In tandem with medication, results have been outstanding


The results of Cognitive Retention Therapy™ have proven successful among researchers, psychologists, doctors, home care providers, and those individuals realizing the value of this therapeutic program.
