Mount Carmel Assisted Living, a Hampton assisted living center, has been dedicated to the care of our
individuals at our Henry County alzheimer's care center. We have also
been assisting with
dementia, and other related
memory loss diseases for almost 30 years. Our goal is to provide a
caring home where seniors can live with dignity, comfort, and the assurance that help
is always available. We strive to help our residents maintain a sense
of self by creating an encouraging and nurturing environment. This is
accomplished through the use of a secure, low-stress, and home-like atmosphere
with meaningful and structured daily activities.

Providing Care Through Understanding
With decades of experience in Alzheimer's care, dementia care, and
impaired memory care along with the implementation of our Alzheimer's
Behavioral Management Program, we are distinguished from other assisted
living facilities. Our program is based on the understanding that many
aggressive behaviors of Alzheimer's sufferers are actually symptoms
of unmet needs.
We understand that every Alzheimer's patient is different and most
have challenging behaviors. That is why our Behavioral Management Team
meets regularly with residents' physicians to discuss the physical
and emotional needs of each resident. In this way, we can create effective
and up to date care plans. In every case, our residents' families
are kept informed and are welcome to participate in team meetings. We
go above and beyond to ensure that our residents feel at home.
How to Know It's Time to Place Your Loved One In Our Care
The decision to move a loved one into an assisted living facility can be
extremely emotional. When a patient has Alzheimer's, it can be even
more difficult--whether they become agitated by the news, forget that
they are being moved, or don't understand your decision to place them
elsewhere than their home. However, there are certain factors that can
help you decide it's time to relieve yourself or others of the caregiver
burden and let trained professionals take over.
Some of the factors that indicate it may be time to place your loved one
in our Hampton Alzheimer's care center include:
-
Their safety is at risk: When someone has Alzheimer's, it is especially important that they
remain in an environment that can prioritize and enforce their safety.
Consider asking yourself these questions: Have they wandered? Are they
a fall risk? Are there stairs in the home that make it difficult or unsafe
for them to go about the house? If you answered yes to any of these questions,
we recommend considering an assisted living facility, like ours. At {Sub:BusinessName},
we have handrails in all the hallways, are specifically trained to help
prevent and care for falls, and we have a closed facility, which prevents
unsafe wandering from occuring. Additionally, placing your loved one in
an Alzheimer's care center can often be more fiscally prudent than
spending money to make home repairs and adjustments so it is safer.
-
The caregiver burden has become too much: As important as it is to care for and about your loved one with Alzheimer's,
it's also important that you care for yourself. If taking care of
your loved one is becomming too much of a burden for you, i.e. it's
keeping you from getting the necessary rest you need, it's adding
stress and anxiety, it is coming in the way of your ability to get your
own work done, it's keeping you from spending time with the rest of
your family, then allow us to take the burden from you.
-
Their behavior has become too dificult to manage: It's not uncommon for elderly people with Alzheimer's to act aggressive.
If you find yourself unable to manage the aggressive behavior, or unable
to help your loved one manage their continued confusion and forgetfullnes,
it's a sign to let specialists aid you. As mentioned above, our Alzheimer's
care is unique in that we have a specialized Behavior Management program
designed to specifically deal with and manage agressive behaviors.
-
Their general and mental health is declining: One of the challenges of living with Alzheimer's is how isolating it
can be. Aside from a caregiver or interactions with a spouse, it's
more difficult to engage in social activities. One of the benefits of
an assisted living center is the fact that it promotes socialization with
other people through various activities or family-style dining. Additionally,
if your loved one's general health has declined so much that they
can no longer manage their own daily habits, such as bathing, dressing,
going to the bathroom, exercising, and more, it may be best to let a specialized
care team intervene.
