Our caregivers are trained in Alzheimer\u2019s disease and dementia care and are also trained to implement Comfort Keepers\u2019\u00ae unique Interactive Caregiving\u2122 system. With Interactive Caregiving\u2122, the Alzheimer\u2019s disease and dementia care provider will get to know the senior on a personal level, learning about likes, dislikes, and even past events in the senior\u2019s life. While developing a relationship with the senior, the caregiver can plan activities that could help the senior simulate mental or physical activities that have been shown to create more lucid thoughts. The senior and care provider can listen to music together from the senior\u2019s favorite era, read an old favorite book, or even do memory exercises like looking through family photos or discussing current events.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/accreditation.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6447 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"276\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/CK-Edmonton-Accreditated-with-Exemplary-Standing-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 276px) 100vw, 276px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keeping seniors engaged physically and mentally can help to reduce challenging behavior and remain safe and calm.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"782\" height=\"568\" src=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/20-questions.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/20-questions.png 782w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/20-questions-300x218.png 300w, https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/06\/20-questions-768x558.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 782px) 100vw, 782px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Download our Guide:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>20 Questions to Ask When Hiring a Homecare Provider<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<!-- Click to Call - Link -->\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.comfortkeepers.ca\/edmonton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/134\/2025\/10\/CK-Edmonton-20-Questions-to-Ask-When-Hiring-a-Homecare-Provider-2nd-DRAFT-for-Approval.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\n    class=\"click-tel\">\n    <div class=\"call-btn-container\">\n        <div class=\"btn-icons\">\n            <span class=\"fal fa-arrow-to-bottom\"><\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"button-text\">Download Our Free PDF<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/a>\n\n\n\n\n\n<!-- End Block -->\n\n\n\n<style>\n.click-tel {\n    display: flex;\n    \/* max-width: 200px; *\/\n    margin: 0 auto;\n    width: -webkit-fit-content;\n    width: -moz-fit-content;\n    width: fit-content;\n}\n\n.click-tel:focus {\n    text-decoration: none;\n}\n\n.click-tel:hover {\n    text-decoration: none;\n}\n\n.call-btn-container {\n    display: flex;\n    background: #0398D1;\n    color: #ffffff;\n    width: -webkit-fit-content;\n    width: -moz-fit-content;\n    width: fit-content;\n    margin: 0 auto;\n    justify-content: center;\n    padding: 10px 20px;\n    border-radius: 6px;\n    margin: 0 auto;\n    transition: 0.2s;\n}\n\n.call-btn-container:hover {\n    -webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 5px 2px #392c4d;\n    box-shadow: 2px 2px 5px 2px #392c4d;\n    outline: none;\n    border: none;\n}\n\n.call-btn-container .btn-icons {\n    display: flex;\n    color: #49C0E2;\n    align-items: center;\n    padding-right: 5px;\n}\n\n.call-btn-container .btn-icons .fa-wifi {\n    transform: rotate(90deg);\n    font-size: 20px\n}\n\n.call-btn-container .btn-icons .fa-mobile-alt {\n    font-size: 30px\n}\n\n.call\n<\/style>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Below are 20 Questions to Ask a care provider.
