Personal Experience in Dementia Care Ignites Passion for Caring
“Years ago, my grandmother was diagnosed with brain cancer that gave her dementia symptoms. I left my job on Wall Street to become a Certified Nurse's Aide to help care for her. I also started volunteering in the dementia unit of a skilled nursing facility to help people with the disease,” said Lou Giampa, owner of Right at Home Westchester, New York. “I became a certified dementia care trainer. This gave me all the necessary tools to run a home care agency.”
In a review on Caring.com, a past client wrote; “The team at Right at Home Westchester went above and beyond to help us get the immediate help we needed for our uncle. Their compassion, understanding and professionalism gave us the comfort and trust we needed at a time that was very difficult. Thank you for all your patience - you made us feel that ‘family’ was taking care of family.”
The review resonated with what Giampa and his team set out to do — to take care of seniors in need and give peace of mind to families. “We treat every one of our clients the way we would our own family,” said Giampa. “Whereas home care costs remain the biggest concern when someone considers services, our team has gone out and sought many alternative subsidies, including long-term care insurance, veteran’s benefits and even grants from non-profit organizations such as the Alzheimer’s Association and MS Foundation.”
