Alzheimer’s care Oklahoma City
Five million Americans are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. One in three seniors dies from it. Twenty-five million people manage diabetes and the complications associated with it. Half a million people struggle with the debilitating effects of Parkinson’s. Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. Daunting national statistics speak to the challenges of growing older. But your loved one–mother, father, spouse, or child–is not a number. They have lived lives full of dreams, adventure, and deep relationships. And you are left with one of the most difficult jobs possible: being a full-time caregiver. According to Tricia O’Brien, in her article on the stress of family caregiving, “providing care to someone you love—whether full-time, part-time, or long distance—takes a huge toll, both physically and emotionally.” Therefore, Care Plus Home Care comes alongside you to provide resources to facilitate your caregiving tasks. Alzheimer’s care in Oklahoma City is a growing concern, let us be there for you.
