Alzheimer's Care
Expert care in the comfort of your own home
Personalised Alzheimer's Care Around the Clock
Watching a loved one’s memory slip away can be heart breaking. It’s natural to want them to feel safe and comfortable, surrounded by familiar surroundings. That’s where Alzheimer’s home care services steps in. A Star Care offer a dedicated caregiver who becomes an extension of your family, providing personalised assistance and companionship within the comfort of your loved one’s own home.
What Is Alzheimer's Disease?
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects memory, thinking skills, and behaviour and is the leading cause of dementia. The disease gradually worsens with time, leading to a loss of independence and ability to carry out basic tasks. When a person is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, they can maintain their health and well-being by staying active, socially engaged, and participating in activities that stimulate their brain. However, as their condition progresses, it will become increasingly difficult for them to do what is needed.
Many individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s wish to remain in their own homes for as long as possible. However, they are at high risk of wandering around, getting lost, or engaging in risky behaviour that may result in injuries. Live-in care enables them to age in place while receiving the support, constant supervision, and assistance they need to maintain their dignity, independence, and quality of life.

When to Consider Alzheimer's Care Services
It can be incredibly difficult to know when the time is right for Alzheimer’s care. We all want our loved ones to stay independent as long as possible, but there comes a point when their safety and well-being become a concern. It might be time to consider additional support when…
- When your loved one experiences frequent memory lapses and confusion.
- When you start noticing behavioural changes and agitation in a patient.
- When the patient starts to experience cognitive decline, their care needs have progressed to a point where constant support is necessary.
- When daily tasks become unsafe and challenging for the patient, medication management becomes difficult to handle independently.
- You do not wish to check yourself or your loved one living with Alzheimer’s into a residential care facility.
- If you need respite or support from taking care of your loved ones to ensure they get the assistance and undivided they deserve.
