Alzheimer’s Therapy Tables are the only products on the market that address 3 critical needs of those caring for someone with Alzheimer’s: therapy, respite, and intervention.
Reasons for Institutionalization -
Studies have shown that it is the continued buildup of caregiver stress, the increasing number of agitated behavioral episodes, and the decline in the relationship between the individual and the family, that finally leads to the institutionalization of a person with Alzheimer’s. The most common words from caregivers, “I just can’t take it anymore.”
Staying at Home Longer
Alzheimer’s Therapy Tables provide a daily activity, or therapy. This time can be used to further communication with their loved one, or as an important respite for the caregiver. In the evening, the table is a very effective intervention device, helping to de-escalate sun downing episodes. When these primary benefits are achieved several of the major reasons for institutionalization may be defeated. It is possible for a family to prolong caring for their loved one in the home, and to make that time a more positive experience for both the family caregiver and their loved one.
