We have been caring for Alzheimer’s suffers for over 30 years, and during this time, have discovered how to come alongside a sufferer and support them and their family both in the early stages, with help and support, and in the later stages with “live in care” to offer a real alternative to a loved one going into an E.M.I. unit or Nursing Home.

We are all becoming aware of the word Alzheimer’s as there is an almost daily reference to it in the newspapers, magazines, promotional handouts, and of course advice on how to recognise it in ourselves or indeed loved ones.

If we have had personal experience of this, either our parents or other relatives who have suffered from this disease, then we know first hand of the difficulties that face the person themselves and also the people who care for them. A person may have been suffering from Alzheimer’s for some time, but only as this worsens, does it become apparent some of the early symptoms are:

Memory Loss

This can happen over a period of time, and only when it impacts on a person’s ability to care for them selves, communicate their feelings or take care of themselves does it become a concern. There are many reasons for short term memory loss, and the correct diagnosis is of paramount importance. Your G.P. can help by arranging an appointment with a “Memory Clinic” as a first point of call.

Social Isolation

A person suffering from Alzheimer’s can withdraw from their hobbies, social activities and from going out to see friends, and become increasingly withdrawn and insular.

Disorientation

A person may loose the ability to manage their day to day life, dates, appointments, shopping and planning ahead. This can lead to difficulty in completing everyday tasks, including personal hygiene, cooking, caring for pets, even putting on the t.v. and operating the remote controls.

Behaviour

A person’s behaviour may change, with mood swings and anxiety and also lack of physical co-ordination. A person may become aggressive, agitated, and loose the ability to reason.
