Frequently Asked Questions

Assisted living (AL) facilities differ from nursing homes in that they often accept people who require nursing care, have special needs, have a chronic illness, or have dementia. Residents in AL homes require high levels of care and attention; they are a level below a nursing home.

We provide care using a person-centered, holistic approach. Accordingly, we have tailored care plans for each resident based on their diagnosis, health, and involvement requirements. Alpha is a firm believer in emphasizing the individual over the medical problem. Based on industry best practices & research, we employ evidence-based methods. All of this is carried out in a setting resembling a home.

There are no closed doors here. We welcome frequent visits from family members. The Alpha caregivers will be able to establish a rapport with the residents if family members may only watch rather than actively participate in normal activities. You are currently invited to visit your loved ones in the Alpha’s Residences. But appointments will be required to schedule the visits. The visiting family members must adhere to all required safety procedures at the main gate.

Each client has a shared bathroom and en-suite bedroom. A queen-size bed, side tables, an easy chair, and a stool are all included in the room decor. There is also a closet, air conditioning, and an LED TV with a private cable connection. The Alpha Elite Assisted Living Homes offer a drawing room, activities room, terraces, and garden space in addition to the amenities in the rooms, where all the inhabitants may connect, celebrate special occasions, etc. The Alpha residences have been thoroughly renovated with the help of a team of experts. For safety we have installed grab bars and handrails in all relevant locations and renovated the rooms, common areas, and restrooms while keeping in mind the needs and safety of the senior residents.

We do not allow any family member to stay overnight unless it is advised by a medical doctor or in emergency. As we have seen, it may be difficult for seniors, especially those with dementia at an early stage, to reintegrate after a family member spends the night.

It’s best to start with a physician’s assessment. Depending on the circumstances of your situation, or that of your loved one, you can match needs to the right level of assistance. Trained professionals provide support while helping you preserve your independence.

At Alpha Elite Assisted Living Home, we offer a full continuum of care. In addition to assisted living, we provide memory support, skilled nursing and rehabilitation. These levels of living provide around-the-clock care for residents recovering from illness or injury, or those needing more long-term care or support.

Similar to assisted living, memory care gives support for daily tasks but also has specialist personnel, memory-based programmes, and a safe atmosphere. Emergency situations, aggressive conduct, and social isolation among persons with aging-related dementia can frequently be decreased with memory care in a community context.

People who suffer from dementia due to old age frequently forget recent events, struggle with decision-making, become perplexed by sights and sounds, and may have problems falling asleep. As the illness worsens, individuals may lose the ability to recognise familiar faces and locations, wander, get easily agitated, or require assistance with basic daily tasks like eating, dressing, and washing. A doctor can perform tests to determine whether your loved one has dementia or another disorder with symptoms that are similar.

Occupational therapy aids patients in carrying out particular daily tasks that have grown challenging as a result of a condition or injury. For instance, occupational therapists assist patients in improving their motor skills so that tasks like eating and dressing are simpler. To help people make up for limitations and regain independence in daily tasks, they may also employ adaptive methods.

Our speech therapy programme aids with word articulation, memory enhancement, and the recovery of cognitive skills like problem-solving and time management. Additionally, proper feeding and swallowing procedures are taught in speech therapy.

There is no right time as in because the needs and wants of elders differ from one to another.
