Comprehensive Dementia Care from Home

Commonwise leverages expertise and extensive training to offload the stress of dementia care and provide one-on-one support wherever your loved one feels most comfortable. 

The Commonwise Approach

Caring for people with dementia requires specialized skills and dedication. Unlike other care services that assign any available support, Commonwise only pairs clients with caregivers who are passionate about and committed to meeting the unique needs of those with dementia.

Personal Care

Commonwise tailors personal care to the stage and severity of disease, and our caregivers are trained to recognize subtle shifts in a loved one's ability to manage daily tasks like bathing, dressing, or feeding. By addressing challenges at any level, reinforcing routines, and scheduling the same caregiver whenever possible, we ensure your loved one's confidence, well-being, and safety.

Healthcare Coordination and Advocacy

Our RN Care Managers offer critical guidance at any stage of diagnosis, bridging gaps between families and other healthcare professionals. Their expertise helps optimize care, enhance treatment outcomes, and provide peace of mind for families navigating the complex dementia care landscape.

Social and Cognitive Stimulation

Social and cognitive stimulation is crucial to slow decline, reduce agitation, improve sleep, and help improve overall mood. Activities include therapies like reminiscing, music, simple puzzles, pet therapy, walking, and much more. Interaction is crucial.

Respite and Family Support

Caring for individuals living with dementia can be emotionally and physically demanding. Commonwise offers families the opportunity to rest and recharge, maintaining reliable care in their absence.

Insurance Support

Need help understanding how to work with or qualify for long-term care insurance? Our team can help you maximize benefits while securing the best care for your loved one.

In Their Words

  • Thank you for your commitment in the fight to end Alzheimer's and other dementias.  We are grateful for your leadership and outreach in the community to educate more people about the disease and the care and support services of the Alzheimer's Association.
