Assistance with daily activities

Activities of daily living (ADLs) are the personal tasks we do during our daily lives. Because ADL skills tend to decline as dementia progresses, caregiver involvement naturally increases over time.

We are here to help when you need us

Our clients need less assistance with ADLs than people in other long-term care settings, particularly with bathing, dressing, and toileting. In general, about one-third of day care clients need help with toileting, about one-quarter need help with eating, and about one-third need help with medication management. Nearly half need some assistance with walking and about one-third need help with transfers.

Assistance with daily activities is generally divided into two categories: basic ADLs and instrumental ADLs.

Basics ADLs

Grooming

Transfers
