About Dementia Care
Patience & Understanding are paramount in our caregivers
If your loved one has dementia or specifically Alzheimer’s disease, then you are likely experiencing high levels of stress and you are desperate for something (or someone) to help you and your loved one settle into a peaceful routine. Caregivers United is committed to being that difference for your family. We realize that not only does one’s memory diminish over the course of the disease, it is also exceedingly difficult for family and friends to cope with the dramatic relational shifts that take place over the course of the disease. It is of the utmost importance to realize that although the individual is the one needing hands-on care, the family is struggling too. Having a caregiving team like Caregivers United that understands the specific challenges associated with Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease cannot be overstated.
Caregivers United allows someone with Dementia to remain home in their most familiar surroundings while also being as safe as possible. We specialize in caring for individuals with Dementia / Alzheimer’s disease, but we are also keenly aware of surrounding challenges accompanying it (tendencies to wander, compromised decision making, hallucinations, physical aggression…..etc). Our Care Team is committed to your spouse, parent, or friend being as comfortable and safe as possible while also considering your well-being. We are available 24/7 to provide around-the-clock care or just take a phone call to answer your questions or concerns.
We are available for a free courtesy visit. Give us a call and we will do everything within our power to assist you and your loved one create a new normal.
In-Home Care for Dementia, Alzheimer’s & Parkinson’s
In-home dementia care is crucial for a patient with dementia. Giving a safe and secure environment can positively impact their day-to-day lifestyle. Caretakers at Caregivers United can provide them with a daily schedule that can enrich their life with activities. With in home dementia care, life quality can be greatly refined, so patients and families can feel involved in their daily schedule.
Alzheimer’s care is at its best when the patient receives exercise, social interactions, and maintains a healthy diet. Exercise is beneficial to a person who is experiencing the symptoms of Alzheimer’s to avoid risks of vascular dementia. When exercising, the blood flow and oxygen levels transferred to the brain help increase the functionality. The diet of the patient is important to avoid saturated fats and excess sugar intake. Caregivers United offers to cook a balanced diet making sure your loved one is eating fruits, vegetables, and whole grains daily. We also encourage social interactions with family and friends to keep their cognitive functions intact. The mental and social stimulation will help the patient’s progression in Alzheimer’s be an easier transition.
Parkinson’s is a disease commonly found in people past the age of 60. This disease is usually genetically passed down and sometimes, but rarely from toxins in the environment. Parkinson’s does not have a cure, but with medication, it can improve significantly. Medication can put some of the tremors and slow movement at ease. Parkinson’s is a time-consuming disease to treat that is very strenuous on the caregiver if not experienced in handling cases like this. Caregivers United is experienced in taking care of the patient. The patient needs to keep a safe and comfortable environment.

See Why Florida Families Trust Us To Care For The Ones They Love
"My mother was very nervous about someone other than our family taking care of her. However, Caregivers United has the very BEST people! My mom LOVES her caregiver. Thank you for understanding our needs and sending the best we could hope for. But most importantly, thank you for taking great care of my mom!"
"After my hip replacement surgery, I couldn’t even make a cup of coffee. Following surgery, I was reluctant to get help as I like to be independent. But, my kids insisted and I called Caregivers United. Oh, what a GREAT decision that was. Laurie is amazing, and now I’m ready to do my other hip without hesitation just to have her back."

A Letter From Our Founder
"I (Jordan Owens) stand by my word that I will never place a caregiver in your home that I would not trust to care for my own mother (and I really love my mother). Sincerely, I will sooner come in person to care for you or your loved one before lowering the standard of care. Therefore, I personally speak with every client before connecting them with a certified caregiver."
