WE ARE DEMENTIA CARE SPECIALISTS…AND WE ARE HERE FOR YOU
75% of the nearly 100 California State Registered Home Care Aides employed by Home Instead are Dementia Care Specialists through the Alzheimer’s Association’s evidence-based essentialALZ Certification Program. Our corporate mission is to be the foremost dementia care specialist in our area. This is essential, in that, at any given time, 80% of our clients, whose ages range from 65 to 100, have cognitive impairment. We are trained and prepared to care, in-home, for any and all clients whose conditions range from the beginning stages of dementia through the most advanced stages where hospice is required.
For 18 years, the owners of Peregrine Care, Charlene Perrone and Joel Green, have worked together with family caregivers by providing additional resources, hands-on training and care management to those whose loved ones are living with dementia. Through our Dementia Support Program (see under Cost of Care), we are committed to supporting families who are significantly impacted by the emotional and financial stress brought on by this terrible condition. If you need support, call us. Let us provide the community resources and respite care that you, as family caregivers, so richly deserve.
