LifeStages and Alzheimer's

VNA’s LifeStages can help you care for your loved one with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia

Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can make caring for an elder loved one even more difficult. LifeStages Independence at Home Program offers compassionate care for all involved.

Our Care Navigators work with families of Alzheimer’s clients to develop appropriate care plans that take the burden off the family caregivers.

Our managers and caregivers are trained in Alzheimer's care, and work with clients residing at home or in assisted living or independent facilities. Since Alzheimer's often progresses slowly, we focus on long-term care for your loved one.

Did you know...

  • Currently, 50 percent of those over the age of 85 are living with some form of dementia, such as Alzheimer's.
  • Researchers estimate that millions of family members and friends provide unpaid care for someone with Alzheimer's or other dementia every year.
  • More than 60 percent of Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers report the emotional stress of caregiving as high or very high; one-third report symptoms of depression.

Let VNA help you and your family manage Alzheimer's. Our skilled care navigators can reduce the burden on your family by providing professional, compassionate care from the initial stage of Alzheimer's through its progression.

With our Independence at Home program, an elder receives top quality, continuous care from our highly trained staff. First, a care navigator would meet with you and your family to evaluate your loved one. Next, they would develop a best care plan focused on quality of life and safety for your elder. This plan will also be tailored to meet your family's specific needs. Your family can receive every resource necessary to comfortably manage Alzheimer's, all from VNA.
