Working With People Having Dementia/Alzheimer’s Issues
Your Professional Dementia Practitioner in the Midwest
I am Kathy Adkins RN, a dementia specialist working with families to keep people with dementia in the home. I aim to incorporate the newest and best methods to cope with and prevent dementia. I have devoted my life to assisting everyone and providing dementia patients with better care. I also offer dementia and elder care certification courses online and in person across the Midwest.
Just a Call Away
As a dementia and Alzheimer’s care specialist, I guide families and clients through the healthcare delivery system, create care plans, and provide referrals from organizations, suppliers of medical supplies, and healthcare information. I regularly report to you and your PCP to ensure everyone receives the best care possible. My service is available to clientele of all ages.
Facility Placement
I arrange facility placement if necessary. I am a former D.O.N. for advice on where to go. Unlike other services offered in the area, I do not accept payment from facilities. I make decisions and suggestions based on the best placement for your loved one.
I will represent you in the decision-making process. After placement, I continue to work with families. Children of aging parents who live elsewhere can be certain that I am just a phone call away.
How Can I Help
The dementia specialist provides an evaluation to determine the current stage of the disease. I define and set goals for the person with dementia (PWN) and caregiver and cultivate an environment to maximize the diagnosed person’s independence.
My services include but are not limited to:
I am dedicated to helping you prepare for the future while living successfully in the moment.
