Does accredited home care offer dementia support?

Dementia Support at Home

Yes. As a fully accredited home care provider, Infinity Healthcare offers personalized, non-clinical dementia support for people who wish to continue living at home in Edmonton and surrounding communities. Our approach centres on dignity, respect, personal choice, and familiar routines, helping each person take part in daily life in ways that feel comfortable and meaningful.

Dementia affects every individual differently, so support begins with listening. We work with the client, family members, and, where appropriate, other members of the care team to understand preferences, current routines, communication styles, and the type of assistance that would be most helpful. This information guides a flexible care plan that can be adjusted as needs and circumstances change.

Trusted and trained caregivers can provide consistent, reliable in-home support with everyday activities, including:

  • Personal care such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and mobility assistance
  • Meal preparation, light housekeeping, and support with a calm, organized home routine
  • Medication reminders in line with the agreed care plan
  • Companionship, conversation, familiar activities, and social connection
  • Accompaniment to appointments, errands, or outings when appropriate
  • Morning, evening, overnight, and 24/7 care options for changing schedules and support needs

Consistency and familiarity can be especially valuable in dementia care. Infinity Healthcare aims to provide caregivers who understand the individual’s plan and preferences, while maintaining open communication with families. Our role is to offer practical assistance and reassuring companionship, not to diagnose, treat, or cure dementia. If a client’s needs require clinical assessment or medical guidance, families can consult the appropriate regulated healthcare professional.

Family caregivers also deserve support. Respite care can provide planned time away for rest, work, errands, or personal commitments while a loved one receives attentive in-home assistance. Whether support is needed for a few hours, overnight, or on an ongoing basis, care can be arranged around your family’s routines.
