Frequently Asked Questions

At Ohana Care, we believe the best care for individuals with dementia is care provided by compassionate caregivers who support dementia patients with their daily tasks and support them through varying symptoms while adhering to the principles outlined in the Dementia Bill of Rights. This combination ensures seniors receive high-quality support as they navigate through the various stages of dementia.

The best place for someone living with dementia depends on the stage of their dementia. As a standard rule of thumb, those with dementia are encouraged to stay in their home for as long as possible, typically with a caregiver. Once memory loss starts to interfere with day-to-day tasks, it's important for patients to receive more support in senior living facilities.

The seven stages of dementia are:

  1. No memory deficit
  2. Slight cognitive decline
  3. Mild cognitive impairment
  4. Moderate cognitive decline
  5. Moderate dementia
  6. Severe cognitive decline
  7. Severe dementia
