Looking for senior memory care in Middlesex, New Jersey? While there are a number of residential facilities that specialize in memory care, adult day care facilities often lack the staff and physical structure to provide adequate care for adults with memory impairment. This is a real problem, because many people opt to care for their senior relatives with memory problems at home for as long as possible. Access to adult day cares is great for seniors and for their caregivers, helping people keep their family at home for longer periods of time, while simultaneously ensuring that seniors have access to a wide variety of services that are difficult to coordinate and often prohibitively expensive in an at-home setting.
Because we know what a great resource adult day health care centers can be for seniors and their families, we wanted to bring that same level of service to seniors with memory impairment. Memory impairment, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease bring with them a set of challenges that do not exist when caring for a senior who does not have significant cognitive impairment. These challenges include safety concerns, ensuring that the facility is secure to prevent wandering, and programming that is designed to slow down cognitive decline, and, in some cases, even restore some lost functioning.
At South Amboy Adult Day Health Care Center, we believe that physical health and cognitive health go hand-in-hand. We take an individualized approach to the care of each and every resident, designing everything based on individual needs. A multi-disciplinary team of senior healthcare specialists work together to design this plan, which is revised as a patient’s needs evolve and change. The result is that each patient has access to the healthcare or therapy that he or she needs for optimized living. At our facilities, patients can see doctors, podiatrists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, ophthalmologists, and even access diagnostic testing such as lab work and radiology. The goal is to provide comprehensive care that addresses the patient’s total well-being.
