Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care Guide

Caregiver Support

A good place to start, when you or your loved one is diagnosed with dementia, is our Care Navigation service. Our Care Navigators can help you understand the illness, and identify resources to support independence as long as possible. Care Navigators will accompany you or your loved one to appointments, create a plan of care for the future progression of the illness and provide caregiver support.

Maintaining a routine is so important in the life of a dementia patient. Four Seasons Home Care offers services that help with life’s simple, daily routines and activities. Home Care also provides Respite Care for loved ones who might need a break. Home Care is available in Buncombe, Henderson, and Transylvania Counties.
