V H | Daughter of Client"We are so delighted with Right at Home South Liverpool. They took over my mother-in-law's care package from another care provider in November. The difference in my mother-in-law is remarkable. She is so happy with her carers. They genuinely care! They go over and above their brief in order to make sure she is safe and happy. We cannot thank them enough."
What is Alzheimer’s disease?
Alzheimer’s disease is a physical disease that affects the brain. The nerve cells are disrupted by ‘plaques’ and ‘tangles’ that develop inside the brain. For people with Alzheimer’s, communication between nerve cells changes and messages don’t travel around as well as they should. Eventually the cells start to die.
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive condition, so symptoms develop over several years. The most common symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease include confusion, personality changes, problems with speech and difficulty making decisions.
Supporting Clients in South Liverpool to live well with Alzheimer’s disease
There is ongoing research into medical treatments for Alzheimers, though there is no known cure. Read about the research being undertaken by one of our charity partner: Alzheimer’s Society.
Right at Home South Liverpool continues to help Clients to live well with Alzheimer’s and dementia through quality care and support. All of our South Liverpool-based CareGivers complete dementia-specific training as part of their induction programme. As a result, our specialist CareGivers know how to develop personalised care plans to manage and help slow down the symptoms of Alzheimer’s.
Alzheimer’s usually starts with memory loss, as well as losing the ability to find the right words, solve problems or make decisions. As the disease progresses and memory loss, communication skills and orientation get worse, people with Alzheimer’s disease will need some level of care during their day to day lives. Over time, the necessarily level of care at home may start at just one hour a day, for reassurance. Alzheimer’s care plans may eventually progress into 24-hour care as the disease progresses.

Why is Alzheimer’s disease care important?
Alzheimer’s disease can impact a person’s mood, daily activities and hobbies . These changes can have a profound impact on everyday life, making small tasks very challenging. As Alzheimer’s disease progresses, sufferers may start to forget appointments or lose important items, like their keys or wallet. It’s important to keep an eye on any signals that the condition may be getting worse.

FAQs about our Alzheimer’s homecare in South Liverpool
What is the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's?
In short, Alzheimer’s is a specific type of dementia.
Dementia is not a singular condition itself, but rather a term used to describe a group of associated symptoms, such as memory loss and difficulty with concentration.
Whereas Alzheimer’s disease is a specific medical condition that disrupts the brain’s nerve endings and how they communicate with one another.
There are many stages of dementia with different symptoms associated with each. People with Alzheimer’s will also experience various stages of the progressive disease.
At Right at Home South Liverpool, we offer a range of support services for people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. Please get in touch with our team in South Liverpool to find out more about Alzheimer’s homecare.
How long does each stage of Alzheimer's last?
There is no certain time frame for how long it will take to progress between each stage of Alzheimer’s disease. The rate of progression depends on the individual and their own medical situation.
However, as the disease is fairly common, there is an average for how long each stage lasts:
|
Stage of Alzheimer's |
Average Length of Time |
|
Early Stage (Mild) |
2 - 4 Years |
|
Middle Stage (Moderate) |
2 - 10 Years |
|
Late Stage (Severe) |
1 - 3 Years |
If you are unsure what to expect for each stage of Alzheimer’s, talk to your GP or a healthcare professional for advice.
