When a loved one has advanced dementia the entire family is impacted
in countless ways. Over time, as the disease increasingly
affects an individual’s memories, personality and behaviors, it
is common for families to feel emotionally, physically and financially
overextended.
Van Dyke Hospice and Palliative Care Center’s Advanced
Dementia Care Program helps ease the multiple effects
of dementia and lends a measure of peace to everyone involved. The center’s
focus on patients and families provides individuals with continuous
support, a fresh perspective and access to multiple care options. By
establishing a personal connection with each person involved, Van Dyke
Hospice and Palliative Care Center is able to provide options that best
suit the patient and family’s wishes and needs.
The Advanced Dementia
Care Program is designed to help patients and families
monitor and management patient symptoms for optimal comfort and access
the continuum of health care services offered by the Saint Barnabas
Health Care System to ensure appropriate care through all stages of
the disease.
