Expert Memory Care in Mars

In-home memory care in Mars keeps a loved one with dementia oriented and safe in familiar rooms. Care Solutions of Pittsburgh sends caregivers trained in Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, MCI, and frontotemporal dementia. The first home visit walks every room, marking trip hazards, adding nightlights along low-light hallways, labeling drawers and cabinets with photos or simple words, and reviewing exits for wandering risk. Door alarms, motion sensors, and GPS bracelets are coordinated with the family when needed. A steady daily routine, wake, breakfast, morning activity, lunch, quiet rest, and calm late afternoon, reduces confusion and supports better sleep. Sundowning protocols begin by mid-afternoon with dim lamps, soft music, and an early supper. Caregivers communicate in short sentences and one-step instructions, with gestures when language fails. The spouse or adult child providing most of the care gets reliable respite hours, sometimes for sleep, sometimes for their own appointments. We accept memory clinic and neurology referrals from UPMC Passavant, Butler Memorial, and AHN. Plans are reviewed often as cognition changes. Caregivers also assist with bathing, dressing, and toileting with gentle, familiar routines. Meals are prepared on schedule to support appetite and hydration. Notes from each shift go to the family so adult children stay current without having to call every day. Call (412) 341-7780 to schedule an in-home memory care assessment for your loved one in Mars.
