[b][TOWSON, 4/23/2018][/b] – Senior Helpers believes that families do not have to be alone in taking care of their loved ones who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease. In line with its commitment, the company uses the Senior Gems® method for its in-home senior care services in Beaverton.

[b]A Unique Care Plan[/b]

Based on the Gems® technique that renowned occupational therapist, Teepa Snow created, the Senior Gems® method allows Senior Helpers to deliver the best long-term plan for each individual under its care. The method uses a classification system that identifies the characteristics of aging at every critical stage.

The approach enables trained caregivers to classify the gem level of the patient and understand the things they can still do. The gem categories, beginning with Sapphire and ending with Pearls, provides guidance on assessment, preparation, and engagement with seniors.

Each care plan is unique, and even as the disease brings changes, the senior care company says that the focus remains the same: helping seniors do what they can do to live a purposeful life.

Senior Helpers collaborates with Snow, who has more than 30 years of experience as a dementia care and dementia education specialist, to create a comprehensive training program for it’s the company’s caregivers, ensuring that seniors will be in good hands.

Caregivers spend a great amount of time throughout the year to prepare themselves for helping seniors live comfortably and safely. The program includes hours of introductory training with on-going training through online and in-person classes throughout the year.
