Interview with Javier Benavente in Grupo Retiro’s magazine, specializing in current affairs and everything related to the senior sector.
Memory loss is a process involving numerous factors, and some of them can be addressed by promoting cognitive stimulation and maintenance.
Age is considered an important factor to take into account when examining memory problems, but it has also been proven that there are other personal and environmental variables that carry just as much, or even greater, weight. We are referring to environmental factors such as retirement, reduced cognitive stimulation due to fewer demands from the environment or a lack of practice, and the use of tools such as calculators and phone memory functions. Unwanted placement in a residential care home, although not scientifically proven, is also believed to accelerate deterioration.
“9 out of 10 older people prefer their own home to a residential care home”
Currently, people over the age of 65 represent around 20% of the total population, and this percentage is estimated to reach 30% by 2050. Statistics show that 9 out of 10 dependent people prefer to remain in their own home rather than move into a residential care home. For this reason, the service
"Alares We Care for You at Home", as an alternative to residential care, provides the services necessary for a person to have the option of remaining in their usual home without having to be admitted to a care facility, all through our own methodology, proven and tested over the years, which we call the "Alares Method" of comprehensive home assistance, with full supervision of users and caregivers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
