Navigating the challenges of mobility becomes increasingly difficult as dementia progresses. Ellis Home Care's Mobility Assistance services focus on creating a safe, empowering environment to enable people with dementia to maintain their independence and quality of life.
Our highly trained caregivers understand the unique interplay between cognitive and physical challenges affecting mobility in dementia patients. In close consultation with healthcare providers, therapists, and family members, we design a personalized mobility plan tailored to each individual's abilities, needs, and preferences.

Providing safe walking assistance, whether it’s a brief stroll in the garden or moving from room to room, possibly with aids like canes or walkers.
Transfer Assistance
Facilitating secure transitions between different positions or places, such as from a bed to a chair, or from a chair to a toilet.
Fall Prevention
Evaluating and mitigating fall risks in the home, removing hazards and installing safety features like grab bars.
Exercise and Stretching Guidance
Encouraging and aiding in customized exercises and stretches designed to maintain or enhance strength, balance, and flexibility.
Wheelchair Assistance
If needed, guiding in the safe use and navigation of a wheelchair, including transfers in and out.
Adaptation Recommendations
Collaborating with occupational therapists to suggest home modifications or assistive devices that ease mobility challenges.
Our Mobility Assistance services go beyond mere physical support. We appreciate how mobility is intricately tied to one’s sense of independence, self-esteem, and quality of life. Whether it's helping with daily activities or enabling the enjoyment of outdoor experiences, our priority is to foster personal freedom and well-being.
