Dementia care at home in Longmont, CO
Dementia and Alzheimer’s care at home means keeping the person’s world familiar while the family gets real relief.
What it is, in our words
Dementia and Alzheimer’s care at home means keeping the person’s world familiar while the family gets real relief. Our caregivers use redirection and reassurance instead of correction, protect the routines and favorite things that make someone themselves, build meaningful activity into the day, and keep a steady eye on safety, including wandering and the late-day restlessness families call sundowning. It began personally for Leighton: her grandmother had dementia, and she learned that entering her reality and responding to the feeling behind her words worked far better than correcting her. That experience led her to study and train in compassionate dementia care.
Who it is for
- A parent with early or moderate dementia who is still at home and doing well with the right structure
- A spouse caregiver who has not slept a full night in months because of wandering or sundowning
- A family deciding whether it is time for a facility who wants to try more support at home first
- Someone with Alzheimer’s who needs overnight or 24-hour supervision staffed in shifts
What we do
- Redirection, reassurance, and routines instead of correction
- Meaningful activities built around the person’s history, interests, and favorite things
- Safety supervision, including wandering and sundowning
- Personal care: bathing, dressing, toileting, meals, and medication reminders
- Overnight and 24-hour care staffed in shifts
- Family updates by portal, call, text, or a care-notes binder in the home
What we do not do

I can not say enough positive things about Synergy. They have been a godsend for my family. From small tasks, to helping a bit with anything. The stress relief from finally bringing in someone to take some of my burden is immeasurable.
Dave S. · Google · July 2026Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care: questions families ask
Can someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia safely stay at home?
Often, yes, with the right support and supervision. We build structure into the day, watch safety closely, and add overnight or 24-hour care when the family needs it. If needs become skilled, we coordinate with the appropriate medical provider or hospice.
Are your caregivers trained in dementia care?
Yes. Dementia care is one of the largest parts of our work, and the owner has studied and trained in compassionate dementia care. Ask us about a specific caregiver’s experience on the call.
What is sundowning, and how do caregivers help?
Sundowning is the confusion and restlessness that can rise in the late afternoon and evening. Caregivers keep the evening calm and predictable, redirect gently, and stay present through the night when the plan includes overnight care.
Does Medicare pay for dementia care at home?
Medicare generally does not cover ongoing non-medical care. Families use personal funds, long-term care insurance, or VA/TriWest benefits. We help with the insurance paperwork every week.
Can we start with a few hours and add more later?
Yes. There is no required minimum. Care can increase or decrease as the condition changes, and we stay involved when it does.
