"To love a person is to learn the song in their heart and sing it to them when they have forgotten"

Specialized Dementia Care
​Earth Angels Homecare can create a customized home care plan that changes as your loved one's needs change. Our care team has extensive training and experience in providing the right level of individual care and support, while carefully monitoring everything from medication to daily activities. Our Teepa Snow Positive Approach™ to Care techniques are about creating a positive environment that focuses on what they can do, not what they can’t do.
Earth Angels Training
Our team follows the The Positive Approach to Care™ philosophy, developed by dementia-expert, Teepa Snow. This approach empowers caregivers to:
​
-
Respond to a person's change in cognition and abilities in a way that is not hurtful or offensive.
-
Understand that, with practice, common reactions to the person with dementia can become thoughtful responses that improve quality of life for everyone involved.
-
Recognize that the person with dementia is doing the best they can and if something isn't working, it's the responsibility of the caregiver to change their approach toward the person living with dementia.
-
Be aware of environments surrounding a person with dementia and make changes as necessary.
