Seniors With Dementia Receive Expert In-Home Care In Burbank

Part of getting higher in age is understanding that the risk for mental and physical issues will grow higher, too. One of the leading mental diseases seen in senior patients today is dementia, a brain disorder that can cause progressive cognitive problems in its hosts such as loss of memory and concentration.

At A-1 Home Care, our certified caregivers offer lasting dementia care services to our struggling seniors because we know how tough it is to have to go through such a scary time alone. In fact, even if dementia patients have significant care provided to them already by their loved ones, we’ll gladly help lighten the burden on them and their family by offering aid in any way that’s needed.

Dementia is not any one condition, but an umbrella term that oversees several specific mental diseases. In fact, did you know that there are 10 total mental diseases that are classified as being of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease?

By age 80, over half the people will either have a cataract or have had cataract surgery.  This according to the National Institutes of Health.  With over 22 million Americans affected, this is a serious condition that requires all the awareness it should receive.  The bright side is that cataract is slow progressing, so with the right treatment from the eye doctor, cataract should not have to affect daily activities of the individual.  Many treatments can slow down the progression of the disease, and if the cataract is severe enough, then surgery is a safe and effective option to clear up the vision with an artificial lens to replace the affected lens.  Chances are that someone you know is suffering from cataract, so make sure they are getting their eyes check by eye care professionals to ensure their continued quality of life with the best vision possible.
