Dear Friends of Artful Home Care,

This month I am grateful to have begun an intensive Alzheimer’s disease training.  Myself and several caregivers on our team are participating in this 14 week program that will educate us on the stages of AD, instruct us how to effectively cope with the challenges, and how to improve the lives of those living with AD as well as their families.   The Alzheimers Disease Resource Center offers this free 14 week training in Southampton, as well as in Bayshore.

This program has offered yet another validation of the value and importance of creating a safe, engaging, comfortable and stimulating environment for those who are aging, and especially for those with cognitive impairment. Socialization, a trusted companion, the proper training and practical healing tools provide a unique opportunity for those with Alzheimer’s disease to have a chance to thrive.

Artful Home Care is the leading provider of quality care on the East End of Long Island.  We offer a care plan that incorporates the creative arts, music, movement and wellness into the lives of our clients.  Once we meet with our families and learn about our clients, we then provide the community resources that are available, in our libraries, community senior centers, museums, wellness centers and more.  We stay current on the research as well as the evidence-based programs and training that will make the difference in the lives of those we work with.  We take an interest in the alternative methods to healing, so we can provide our clients with the most well rounded choices and information, so they can make choices about their care.

What is it that you have been thinking about?  Do you wonder if your parent is prepared if they begin to experience the symptoms of Alzheimer’s?  Do you have questions about advance directives?   Do you know who to turn to with your questions about the care that you want, or those end of life questions you have in your head, but haven’t been comfortable discussing?  We want to help you.  Call us, 631-259-6472, we are happy to be a resource and a guide for you!  You can also visit our website www.artfulhomecare.net to learn more and get started.  Lets weather the storms together!

With Gratitude,
