Our Services at Pioneer
Residents with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease or other cognitive impairments deserve a model of care that’s uniquely tailored to their special needs. At Pioneer Home Care, we strive to achieve excellence in memory care for your loved one by focusing on each individual’s physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs.
We specialize in care specifically for those with Alzheimer’s or related dementias, but are happy to assist in these and other extenuating circumstances:
- Dementias induced from temporary illness, surgery, or accident
- Requiring assistance with balance, mobility and using canes, walkers, or wheelchairs
- Incontinent, frail or needing assistance and supervision with activities of daily living
- Visually or hearing impaired
- Experiencing memory loss, dementia, Alzheimer’s, confusion, wandering or depression
Our services are based on family requests, needs, pre-admission appraisal, and subsequent reappraisals. These services include:

We serve three home-cooked meals every day along with nourishing snacks and hydration. Our meals are well-balanced, healthy and delicious. We accommodate special diets as prescribed by a physician or by personal, cultural and religious preferences.
Our weekly menu focuses on the four essential food groups that keep the body well.
- Fresh fruits and vegetables
- Whole grains, enriched breads and cereals
- Milk and dairy products
- Fish, poultry and lean meats
Social & Recreational Activities
For the residents, an Pioneer Home is a welcome solution for someone who needs 24-hour a day care. The basic needs of your loved ones are met, while at the same time the highest standard of living is obtained — a standard of living that the resident deserves, not simply artificial activities to keep them busy. Many of these social and recreational activities would not be possible in other settings where the staff might not be trained specifically to work with Alzheimer’s, dementia and other cognitive impairments.
