Anxiety in dementia is often environmental. Smaller homes reduce stimulation, improve familiarity, and create emotional stability.
For many families across Fairfield and New Haven counties, this becomes one of the biggest deciding factors. Safety, security, and knowing your loved one is not being overstimulated are among the most important things. They are more relaxed in a small, familiar home.
Being happy and content is what you will see with residents in a smaller home. They are less confused because they know the two caregivers taking care of them, they know the routine, they can meander around the home safely, and they know the handful of people with whom they are living and dining.
Across Fairfield County, New Haven Counties, and The Valley, more families are exploring this model as an alternative to traditional facilities. Just Like Home, LLC is a huge advocate for small homes for people with dementia. We are the only two homes at present in the state of Connecticut. Come see the difference for your loved one.
