At Comfort Keepers in Greenfield, WI our mission is a simple one. To provide our neighbors with a full complement of Alzheimer's and dementia care services.

• In a recent report issued by the Alzheimer's Association, it was noted that today there are more than 5.8 million Americans being affected by Alzheimer's disease.
• In another report issued by the National Institute on Aging, Alzheimer's disease has become the 6th leading cause of death.

Here in the U.S., one person is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease every 65 seconds and around the world, this number increases to one person every 33 seconds. Despite the $1.1 trillion spent on Alzheimer's disease worldwide, we are no closer to understanding its cause. To make matters even more challenging, we have yet to come up with a cure. In many cases, it falls to family members to provide dementia home care services for their loved one, despite the lack of education and training.

When You Feel as if There Is Too Much Day and Not Enough Hours

Most of us lead very busy lives, what with kids, a career, and our own households to take care of. Trying to find time to provide care for a loved one can leave you wondering how you can add more hours to the day. Before you find yourself reaching the end of your rope, contact us here at Comfort Keepers and talk to us about having one of our highly educated and specially trained caregivers come to your home or that of your loved one.

Alzheimer's Disease Doesn't Mean Your Loved One Can't Live at Home

There is an all too pervasive myth that says those with Alzheimer's can't continue living at home. The reality is quite the opposite as with the right Alzheimer's and dementia care, there is no reason your loved one can't continue to enjoy the safety and warmth that comes with living at home with family. Staying home helps your loved one to continue their daily routine, it also helps to minimize their anxiety and confusion.
