Alzheimer’s Disease is the most common form of dementia (a group of symptoms that affect the brain and can affect a person’s memory, emotions, and the ability to do everyday activities). It affects 35-million people worldwide. Many families in Hawaii choose to care for their loved ones themselves, enduring a variety of emotional and physical stresses. Some of the more difficult symptoms of Alzheimer’s are the behavioral problems (agitation, depression, anger). Alzheimer’s disease is progressive and irreversible and can be a daunting diagnosis for families and loved ones. With appropriate care, a person with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia is able to have a fulfilling and meaningful life at home. Activities related to former interests can help jog the memory and provide therapeutic advantages. Aside from carefully screening workers’ background and education, PNW also inquires about interests and hobbies in order to place them appropriately. Paradise Nursing Workforce brings the appropriate and quality care to a client’s home from 2-24 hours. While symptoms vary, depending on the person, inevitably complete care will likely be needed. PNW offers all levels of care ranging from Companion Care to Skilled Nursing.
Another stress that PNW alleviates, especially during the holiday season, are the stresses that a family caregiver feels about traveling. PNW can look after a client staying at home, allowing the family caregiver to live their life with vacations, work, and outings.
