Expanded support has been made available for seniors living with cognitive change. A dementia care approach has been emphasized so a sense of normalcy can be protected for the individual and the family, with routines and communication preferences being considered as part of daily care. Customized plans have been positioned to improve quality of life while the emotional weight carried by families is being eased through consistent, familiar support in the home.
Around the clock needs have also been addressed through 24 hour care services. Help with daily tasks such as bathing and personal hygiene, mobility assistance, meal planning, light housekeeping, and medication reminders has been included so safety can be maintained during both day and night hours. This level of care has been designed for situations where falls risk, wandering concerns, or caregiver fatigue have made part time help insufficient.
Family caregivers have been supported more directly through respite and caregiver support services, with ADL and IADL assistance being provided to reduce strain while care responsibilities are shared. A focus has been kept on practical relief, so families can step away for work, rest, or personal needs while care continuity is preserved.
Trust and safety have been treated as essential parts of the expansion. Caregivers have been described as thoroughly trained and background checked, and careful matching has been prioritized so needs, personality, and routines can be respected.
Services have been offered throughout communities including Newtown, Bensalem, Levittown, Elkins Park, and Langhorne, with care being delivered in the place seniors know best, their own home.
