Dementia and Memory Care in Asheboro, NC

Specialized Support for Seniors with Alzheimer’s & Dementia

You’re Not Alone in This Journey

Options is Here to Help

Taking care of someone with memory loss can be challenging, and it often takes time and steady support. In Asheboro, NC, our caregivers help seniors with Alzheimer’s or dementia stay in their own homes while getting the help they need day to day. Staying at home can feel more familiar and steady, and for many people that alone can make day-to-day life feel a bit easier. It also helps them stick to their usual routine and feel a little more grounded in how their days flow.

What Families Are Saying

Options helped pair my elderly father with the best possible care provider. Not only was she prepared to go the extra mile to help him health-wise in his home, but she would also read to him and talk to him, something no other care provider from any other agency had ever done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your caregivers vetted in Asheboro, NC?

Yes. Our caregivers are carefully vetted before joining our team, and many have valuable experience caring for individuals with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and memory loss. In Asheboro, NC, families trust Options Home Care to deliver compassionate in-home assistance tailored to the unique needs of each senior.

Yes. We want every family to feel confident in their care decision. Before services begin, you can meet the caregiver, learn more about their background, and discuss how they will support your loved one on a daily basis.

In many cases, services can be arranged quickly. Once we have gathered information about your loved one’s care needs and preferences, we work to match them with a qualified caregiver as soon as possible.

Memory care at home allows family members to share caregiving responsibilities with trained professionals. Our caregivers provide assistance with everyday activities, offer companionship, encourage routines, and help create a safe and supportive environment that benefits the entire family.

Many families find that in-home memory care offers the right balance of support and familiarity. Seniors living with memory loss often benefit from remaining in an environment they recognize, surrounded by familiar possessions and routines. Home care allows for personalized assistance without requiring a major life transition.

Memory care is usually considered long-term care because the support is needed over a longer period, not just for a short time. At Options Home Care, families may use private pay, long-term care insurance, or some Medicare Part C Advantage Plans to help cover the cost of care. 

Long-term care insurance is meant to help with the cost of ongoing personal care and support when someone starts needing more help day to day. People usually buy these policies ahead of time, before they actually need care. When things like aging, illness, disability, or memory-related conditions make everyday tasks harder, the policy can help with some of those costs. 

With long-term care insurance, benefits usually kick in once certain requirements are met. We help families work through the process, whether that’s checking what’s covered, starting a claim, keeping track of services, or talking with the insurance company. The idea is just to take some of the paperwork off their plate and make things a bit easier when setting up care.

Activities of Daily Living, often shortened to ADLs, are the everyday personal care tasks that most people perform without assistance. These basic functions are used by healthcare professionals and insurance providers to help determine a person’s ability to live independently. Common ADLs include:

  • Bathing and maintaining personal hygiene
  • Getting dressed
  • Using the toilet safely
  • Moving from one position to another, such as from a bed to a chair
  • Eating and drinking without assistance
  • Managing bladder and bowel function


ADLs are an important part of many care qualification processes. Most long-term care insurance policies require an individual to need help with at least two ADLs before benefits become available. Certain veterans’ assistance programs may require help with three ADLs before home care services can be approved.

If your loved one is starting to need help with daily activities, we can take a look at their situation, go over what care options are available, and help you figure out the next steps for getting coverage and setting up care.

The VA Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care program helps many veterans receive non-medical care services without leaving the comfort of home. This benefit is meant to help veterans who need a bit of support with daily tasks while still living as independently as possible. Care can involve help with different parts of the day, like bathing, getting dressed, personal care, making meals, light cleaning around the home, and just keeping up with everyday routines. 

Options Home Care works with the VA community care program to provide approved home care services for eligible veterans. In some cases, VA benefits may help cover the cost of care. 

To access these services, veterans typically must:

  • Be enrolled in VA healthcare
  • Complete a needs assessment with a VA clinician
  • Receive authorization for home care
  • Be assigned a VA social worker who oversees care coordination


After approval, our team works hand in hand with VA representatives and social workers to provide dependable, individualized care. We are also available to help answer questions and guide families through the enrollment process.

Additional financial assistance may be available through VA Aid and Attendance and similar veterans’ programs. These benefits can help qualifying veterans and surviving spouses pay for ongoing home care services when certain eligibility requirements are met.

In-home memory care just means staying at home and getting a bit of help with daily needs as they come up. Some people prefer not to move into a facility, so they stay where things are already familiar and get support there instead. For some, being at home can feel a bit more comfortable, especially when memory loss starts making everyday things harder. 

Care is usually given one person at a time, and it can involve help with daily routines, basic tasks, and some of the challenges that come with memory loss. Caregivers also work with families to figure out what kind of help is needed and how it can fit into the person’s day. The focus is simply on giving support while still letting the person do as much on their own as they can.
