A team is needed to help in the care of a family with Alzheimer’s. Our guidance, education and consulting includes helping you, the family, know and understand what is needed to provide a less stressful caregiving experience. By knowing what you need, when you need it and where to get the proper information and care, can significantly relieve caregiving stress because you will have answers readily available.
We provide a safe environment, structure, socialization, and support in a space away from home. As part of providing quality caregiving and helping families remain together delaying long term care placement, day care can provide an affordable care option with the benefit of elevating quality of life and relieving caregiver stress.
In our small home-like secured environment, we provide personal care at all levels of need using holistic and palliative approaches. From time to time, Alzheimer’s and other memory impaired residents will have behavior issues. With our special team and my expertise, we will help your loved one transition to a more comfortable quality of life.
Almost Home founder and owner Jamie Glavich learned the hard lessons many years ago about caring for her mother who had early-onset Alzheimer’s. Her mother was young and had challenging behaviors and it was impossible to find a residential program that would care for her. So, Jamie opened her own. Today, she directs the programs of care at her assisted living facility and adult day care center, and is instrumental in serving Florida’s Alzheimer’s care community.
