Dementia Self-Care at Home
Many individuals with dementia in the early and intermediate stages are able to live independently.
With regular checks by a local relative or friend, they are able to live without constant supervision.
Those who have difficulty with activities of daily living require at least part-time help from a family caregiver or home health aide.
Visiting nurses can make sure that these individuals take their medications as directed.
Housekeeping help is available for those who cannot keep up with household chores.
