What Alzheimer’s care at home looks like in Joplin
When a family member has Alzheimer’s or dementia, most families in Joplin want the same thing: keep Mom or Dad at home, safely, for as long as possible. Here is what specialized in-home dementia care actually looks like.
Familiar surroundings matter. Staying in a familiar home, with familiar routines, often reduces confusion and agitation for someone living with memory loss. Our caregivers help with bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and companionship, and they are trained for the extra patience memory care takes.
Charlotte’s Angels is MUSIC & MEMORY certified, so caregivers can use personalized playlists of favorite music to help calm anxiety and spark memories. Our COO, Kim Roy, is certified as an Alzheimer’s and Dementia Trainer by the Alzheimer’s Association, and that training goes to the whole team.
You interview the caregiver before anyone comes into the house. We match the caregiver to the person, and if it is not the right fit, we send someone else. Caregivers are background checked and bonded.
We are locally owned in Joplin and serve Southwest Missouri, including Webb City, Carthage, and Neosho. Families pay privately or through Missouri HCBS Medicaid, long-term care insurance, or VA Aid and Attendance.
