Benefits from a Professional Caregiver

We at A-1 Home Care – Caregiver Agency understand what it takes to deliver the intricate and delicate treatment of someone suffering from Alzheimer Disease or Dementia. Although we cannot replace the care and love of a family Caregiver, our dedicated at home health care providers have personal experience in dealing with individuals in these circumstances. As the family Care Provider, the time and stress of employment and other familial responsibilities can make it almost impossible to fully devote yourself to someone who is in need of such personalized care. Having a professional Home Health Care Provider or Caregiver assisting your loved one for even a few hours or several days a week can go a long way in giving the family Caregiver a much needed respite and support. Our Professional Caregivers are just a phone call away at (714) 523-4010.

Famous People with Alzheimer Disease

Alzheimer is a very common disease that afflicts millions of people worldwide. These people include famous intellectuals, politicians, actors, and writers alike, many of which opted for treatment. Some prominent examples are Harold Wilson (United Kingdom) and Adolfo Suárez (Spain), actor Charlton Heston, actress Rita Hayworth, and author Terry Pratchett. Other notable cases include former United States President Ronald Reagan and Irish writer Iris Murdoch, both of whom were the featured in scientific articles observing how their cognitive capabilities worsened with the disease.

Several films have spotlighted Alzheimer Disease in recent past. Iris (2001) is based on John Bayley's memoir of his wife Iris Murdoch. The Notebook (2004) too is adopted from a Nicholas Sparks novel of the same name. Away from Her (2006) is also based on Alice Munro's short story, "The Bear Came over the Mountain".
