A dementia caregiver can provide practical day-to-day support based on the person's abilities and stage of cognitive decline. This may include:
- Bathing, dressing and grooming
- Meal preparation and feeding assistance
- Medication reminders
- Toileting and incontinence care
- Walking, mobility and transfers
- Companionship and conversation
- Maintaining familiar routines
- Light housekeeping and laundry
- Accompanying the person to appointments
- Supervision when it is no longer safe to remain alone
- Overnight support
- Respite for family caregivers
Caregivers may also help provide structure and reassurance when a person experiences confusion, repetitive questions, changes in communication, agitation, wandering or disrupted sleep.
What should I look for when hiring a dementia caregiver?
Look for previous experience caring for people with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, particularly with similar symptoms and level of assistance.
Experience with personal care, mobility, communication changes, wandering, nighttime confusion and maintaining consistent routines can be especially valuable.
Qualifications such as PSW, HCA, First Aid or CPR may also be relevant, depending on the person's needs.
Personal compatibility is equally important. Dementia care often requires patience, calm communication, consistency and the ability to respond appropriately when the person becomes confused or anxious.
