a-1 home careAlzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease), Prion Disease, motor neurone diseases, Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Huntington’s Disease all have one thing in common – they are grouped together under a category of neurodegenerative disorders.  The term neurodegenerative refers to the loss of structure or function of neurons, which are nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.  Once these cells are destroyed, they cannot be replaced.  Neurodegenerative diseases affect movement and cognitive functioning.  In Culver City and surrounding areas, A-1 Home Care provides quality in-home caregiving support in the comfort of your own home.

Culver City Dementia Care: A Cup a Day Keeps Alzheimer’s Away

a-1 home care arthritisHow you drink your coffee makes the difference in preventing the onset of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), a prodromal stage of Alzheimer’s Disease.  Compared to those who never drink coffee, regular coffee consumers who sustain a steady habit of one or two cups a day are less likely to develop MCI.  The emphasis is on consistency; if you consume one or two cups a day, do not increase your intake.  If you don’t drink coffee at all, it wouldn’t hurt to start the delicious habit.  Coffee consumption in moderation may be vital for prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia, according to the Italian Longitudinal Study on Aging. The findings of this study can be found in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Alzheimer’s Disease is a form of dementia that interferes with an elderly person’s memory, behavior and thinking.  You may recall an older adult who has trouble remembering newly learned information, or perhaps a story of someone’s grandmother wandering down the street late at night comes to mind.  In advanced stages of this dementia, it is not uncommon for someone to forget his address, the names of his children, or regular routines like brushing his teeth or taking a shower.  If you have an elderly loved one who has Alzheimer’s, it would be crucially important to find in-home care for him, especially if he lives alone.

A-1 Home Care in Culver City provides 24-hour Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care for seniors who live with their families or who live alone.  Hiring a round-the-clock live-in caregiver for your parent will give you a peace of mind.  How reassuring it is to know that someone is keeping a close watch to prevent devastating accidents!  Live-in caregivers assist with activities of daily living, such as meal preparation, cooking, cleaning, personal care, and transportation.  As awesome companions who enjoy swapping stories with seniors, A-1 Home Care’s in-home Alzheimer’s caregivers are compassionate, competent and experienced.

To hire an Alzheimer’s caregiver today, call (310) 657-8780 or visit our website www.culvercityinhomecare.com for services in Culver City, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Malibu, Redondo Beach, and other cities throughout Los Angeles County.

a-1 home care

The baby boomer generation has grown a reputation for insisting on remaining independent, and rightfully so.  Who wants to live in a nursing home during the holidays anyways?  It can be too much change in a lifestyle you’re already so accustomed to.  Even if your loved one is in good health right now, it’s important to plan ahead and perhaps settle on a long-term insurance plan. 70 % of people 65 and older are estimated to need long term care, so it definitely is smarter to prepare earlier when long term insurance is affordable before retirement.

A-1 Home Care is a non-medical homecare agency that provides 24 Hour Care in-home care services in Culver City.  We provide compassionate and qualified caregivers, nurse aides, companions, and home helpers who must have prior at home caregiving experience, verifiable professional references, a National Background Check/DMV Check, Tuberculosis testing, Malpractice/Liability insurance, First Aid/CPR training, and a personal interview with our office staff.

We specialize in Elder Care services such as Arthritis Care, Parkinson’s Care, Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care, Respite Care, Diabetic Care, Cancer Care, After Surgery Care, Hospice Care, Incontinence Care, and Post Stroke Care on a 24 hour Live-In Care or Hourly Care basis.

We provide care at home in the communities of Culver City, Los Angeles, Glendale, Hollywood, Santa Monica, Studio City, Brentwood, Beverly Hills, San Marino, Palos Verdes, Westwood, and others in Los Angeles County.

To hire a compassionate caregiver in your area today, callus at 310 657 8780 for a free in-home assessment. Or visit us at Culver City In Home Care.

Vital SignsIn the final years of your loved one’s life, you want to provide the best care possible by surrounding them with undivided attention.  In addition to traditional services such as personal care, meal preparation and light housecleaning, hospice companions can provide spiritual support if faith is important to your loved one.  Reading scriptures out loud, prayer and silent meditation provide much comfort to those who rely on their faith to carry them through hard times.  Reflecting out loud about one’s journey through life with a trusted companion is also a healing process.

In contrast to hospitals, nursing homes and other assisted-living facilities, hospice care is compassionate, palliative care in the comfort of one’s own home.  For over 20 years, A-1 Home Care has provided quality hospice care for families who are going through a distressful time.  Our hospice companions have been a beacon of light to family members, providing meaningful support and making the most of one’s last phase in life.

To find out more about hospice care, call A-1 Home Care today (310) 657-8780 to meet with our caregivers.  You can also visit our website www.culvercityinhomecare.com to view our comprehensive list of services.  We have provided top-notch hospice care for Culver City, Beverly Hills, Malibu, Santa Monica, and other cities throughout Los Angeles County.

Synovial fluid is the lubricant between your joints that allow you to move your toes, fingers, hands, legs and arms with liberty. Arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints. When joints get inflamed, the synovial fluid thickens and causes swelling of the joints, which is symptomatic of rheumatoid arthritis. The swelling weakens the surrounding ligaments and muscles as bone and cartilage erode.

????????????????????????????????????????Alzheimer’s Disease is often classified as “old age disease” because it is associated with memory loss, absent-mindedness, and cognitive impairment.   Affecting mostly seniors over age 65, this form of dementia can be dangerous, especially in advanced stages. You often hear of the elderly wandering into the streets and forgetting their way home. Alzheimer’s makes you forget familiar streets and faces, and it can be emotionally devastating when your grandparents or parents forget who you are. This disease also has an impact on personality, mood swings, and speech.

If you are the primary caregiver for your loved one, you know that juggling between taking care of your loved one, your kids, spouse, and other responsibilities takes a toll on your health. Eventually, having too much on your plate will push you to mental and emotional exhaustion! Before it gets to this point, call for help and get a respite caregiver who will divide the responsibilities in the home. Trained professionals can assist with personal care, grooming and hygiene, meal preparations, medication reminders, lifting and transferring, and so much more. Give yourself room to breathe, and you will feel a lot better knowing that you are taking care of your loved one and your own health.

Call A-1 Home Care today for a free consultation (310) 657-8780 or visit our website http://www.culvercityinhomecare.com to see what we offer for Culver City, Santa Monica, Malibu, Studio City, Hollywood, Sherman Oaks and other surrounding cities.

Dealing with Incontinence can be a very difficult thing to do for Elderly and Senior individuals who have it as well as the primary caregiver.  Although they need help, the Elderly individual may feel ashamed after an accident and not want their caregiver to help clean, but they have to tolerate it because they can’t clean themselves.  The caregiver may be worried or embarrassed about going out in public in case the incontinence individual has an accident.  There are ways to make incontinence more manageable, such as with purchasing incontinence pads/pants, adult diapers, absorbent undersheets, and waterproof bed sheets.  Trying to find a patter in the Elderly individual’s bathroom time throughout the day can help you form a bathroom trip schedule.  This article titled Coping with Your Emotions is from the point of view of an incontinent individual, but it applies to family caregivers as well in disclosing your loved one’s problem to other friends and family.

A-1 Home Care is a Licensed Bonded and Insured non-medical homecare agency that has been in business since 1991 with an A+ Rating from the Better Business Bureau and Shield Accreditation.  Our compassionate and experienced caregivers, nurse aides, and companions specialize in Elder Care services such as Incontinence Care, Alzheimer’s Care, Arthritis Care, Parkinson’s Care, Cancer Care, Diabetic Care, Post Stroke Care, and Hospice Care.
