Senior Helpers - Atascadero, CA

Alzheimer's & Dementia

At Senior Helpers, our professional, trained caregivers take a positive approach to Alzheimer’s and dementia care with our unique Senior Gems® program. The Senior Gems® focuses on what is precious and unique about all of our clients and although we understand there are changes taking place, our emphasis is on what clients are still able to do. Our caregivers use techniques designed to:
•Foster supportive communication
•Promote a positive environment
•Provide meaningful activities

We also work closely with dementia expert and registered occupational therapist, Teepa Snow (MS, OR/L, FATE). Her Senior Gems classification system (based on the Allen Cognitive Disability Theory) allows us to understand which stage of dementia the person is experiencing so we can put together the best plan and select the best caregiver for that individual.

Whether you need Senior Helpers' assistance 24/7 or just a few hours a day, our San Luis Obispo office is here to help. Our service options are flexible and customizable according to your specific situation, and your personalized senior care plan can be a combination of any of our service offerings.

Our local office is proud to announce that we are entering our sixth year of serving clients and families throughout the California Central Coast. We were honored to receive Best of Home Care 2013 and 2014 from Home Care Pulse, an independent rating system specializing in home care. Our Better Business Bureau rating has maintained the highest rating available through this trusted organization.
