Alzheimer’s Home Care
Winter Garden Senior Home Care is a top In-Home Alzheimer's In-Home Care provider working to make the world a better place for seniors with memory-loss issues and dementia.
We believe Alzheimer's & dementia sufferers deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. Our personalized plans and trained caregivers will ensure that you or your loved one is able to maintain their independence in the comfort of the place they call “home”.
Alzheimer’s disease can be a devastating diagnosis for families. As the number of older Americans grows rapidly, so too will the number of new and existing cases of Alzheimer's. By 2050, the number of people age 65 and older with Alzheimer’s dementia may grow to a projected 13.8 million, barring the development of medical breakthroughs to prevent, slow or cure Alzheimer’s disease.
“More than 5 million Americans of all ages have Alzheimer's. An estimated 5.8 million Americans age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's dementia in 2020. Eighty percent are age 75 or older. One in 10 people age 65 and older (10%) has Alzheimer's dementia.”
At first, you may notice just mild symptoms that have a minimal effect on daily life:
- Short-term and long-term memory issues
- Difficulty solving simple challenges
- Struggles with regular, day-to-day activities
- Forgets phrases, begins mixing words
- Loses items or becomes lost more frequently
- Becomes confused about date, place or time
- Confuses the names and identities of individuals
Eventually, each Alzheimer's disease patient will need supportive services to ensure their security and well-being.
Hospice Care at Home
What is hospice care?
Hospice care is for people who are nearing the end of life. The services are provided by a team of health care professionals who maximize comfort for a person who is terminally ill by reducing pain and addressing physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs. To help families, hospice care also provides counseling, respite care and practical support.
Unlike other medical care, the focus of hospice care isn't to cure the underlying disease. The goal is to support the highest quality of life possible for whatever time remains.
End-of-Life Care Services
When a patient is diagnosed with a limited life expectancy, the role of care often falls into the hands of the family. Winter Garden Senior Home Care offers assistance and support so your family doesn’t have to shoulder these responsibilities alone.
Our caregivers offer a client-focused approach to hospice care. We ensure your loved one receives the individualized care that is right for their unique situation. Our team will provide hospice services like comfort, hygiene, companionship, and more — offering your family the assistance they need to celebrate the life of your loved one.
Comfort and Care
Hospice care offers your family the opportunity to enjoy the final days with your loved one. Life comes to an end for all of us. While we all will move on eventually, that doesn’t make the process any easier. Winter Garden Senior Home Care offers compassionate, caring assistance to the people we serve, so they can spend their last days in comfort.
Family Support and Respite
The end of life transition isn’t only difficult for the person experiencing it. Family members and others close to the patient often find themselves dealing with difficult emotions while trying their best to care for their loved ones. Winter Garden Senior Home Care is here to help shoulder these responsibilities so you can spend this important time with your loved one.
Who Benefits from Hospice Care?
Hospice care is for a terminally ill person who's expected to have six months or less to live. But hospice care can be provided for as long as the person's doctor and hospice care team certify that the condition remains life-limiting.
Many people who receive hospice care have cancer, while others have heart disease, dementia, kidney failure or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Enrolling in hospice care early helps you live better and live longer. Hospice care decreases the burden on family, decreases the family's likelihood of having a complicated grief and prepares family members for their loved one's death. Hospice also allows a patient to be cared for at a facility for a period of time, not because the patient needs it, but because the family caregiver needs a break. This is known as respite care.
Where is Hospice Care Provided?
Most hospice care is provided at home — with a family member typically serving as the primary caregiver. However, hospice care is also available at hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities and dedicated hospice facilities.

Perhaps a resident has experienced a fall or emergency room visit and would like added care for a few days.
