DEMENTIA & ALZHEIMER'S SUPPORT
Dementia-informed support at home in Louisville.
Familiar routines and a patient approach matter when someone is living with memory loss. Peacemaker offers non-medical dementia support in Louisville and surrounding areas, shaped around daily routines, companionship and family coordination.
THE SHORT ANSWER
What families should know first
Dementia support at home focuses on familiar routines, personal assistance, companionship, communication and family coordination—not diagnosis, treatment, nursing or therapy.
What support can look like
- Help with familiar bathing, dressing, grooming and meal routines
- Companionship and activities suited to the person
- Calm reminders and consistent approaches within the care plan
- Respite for family caregivers
- Extended schedules when assessed needs and availability support them
Why details matter
We ask what time of day is hardest, which routines are familiar, how the person communicates, what tends to reassure them and what the family has already learned. That context helps shape the care plan and caregiver match.
- Share preferred names, routines and meaningful interests
- Describe mobility or personal-care assistance that is needed
- Identify the family decision-maker and communication plan
- Explain what a calmer day looks like for this person
Non-medical does not mean clinical
Peacemaker provides non-medical home care. We do not provide skilled nursing or therapy, emergency care or hospital-level services.
Families should keep medical questions, diagnoses, medication changes and treatment decisions with the person's licensed clinicians.
