Alzheimer's & Dementia Care in Morden

Alzheimer's & Dementia Care. Nurse-led. Doctor-supported.

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or another dementia at home is rewarding and exhausting in the same breath. As the condition progresses, needs shift — and so must the approach. Our nurse-led team provides person-centered support that honours who your parent is, not just what they've been diagnosed with.

Care planning in Morden: Morden care planning may combine continuous or palliative support, foot care, respite, physiotherapy, or personal care with travel to Boundary Trails and a clear family backup plan for evenings and weekends.

How this service connects to local care

A plan for the person, the home, and the schedule

How the service fits

Alzheimer's & Dementia Care care should translate the clinical plan into a workable home routine, including symptoms to monitor, personal support, medication instructions, mobility, nutrition, appointments, family respite, and when to contact the treating team.

Hospital and appointment handoff

If care follows a stay or appointment at Boundary Trails Health Centre, share the discharge date, written instructions, medication changes, mobility limits, equipment needs, and follow-up schedule. Prime provides discharge planning, hospital-to-home transportation, appointment escorts, nursing, and post-surgery support.

Home and scheduling details

The nurse assessment should review entrances, stairs, bathroom access, transfer needs, medication storage, winter access, and whether equipment or an awake overnight shift is required. For service outside Winnipeg, confirm the exact address, proposed hours, travel arrangements, minimum shift structure, overnight needs, and backup plan before care begins.
