💜 What if I’m not ready to move my loved one to Assisted Living or Memory Care? 💜

You’re not alone—and there are options.

Caring for a loved one with dementia at home can feel overwhelming, but support doesn’t always mean moving right away. There are ways to help your loved one remain at home safely while also caring for yourself as a caregiver.

✔️ Learn about the diagnosis through trusted resources and support groups
✔️ Make the home safer with simple modifications
✔️ Use respite care or adult day programs to give yourself needed breaks
✔️ Connect with dementia care coordinators and in-home services
✔️ Plan ahead so you’re prepared if care needs change

And when the time does come to explore additional help, having a plan in place can make that transition less stressful for everyone.

Canterfield of Fort Myers we’re here to educate, support, and guide families—whether that move is now, later, or just something you’re beginning to think about.

The longevity of our staff is our greatest asset at Canterfield! Nearly half of our employees have been with us for more than 5 years, and some have been with us since our grand opening! Canterfield wouldn’t be the home that you know and love without our kind, generous, intelligent, long-term staff members, and we can’t thank them enough for making Canterfield their home.

Canterfield of Fort Myers , we are proud to partner with GOMO Travel, LLC a trusted senior relocation service that truly goes above and beyond.

We often welcome elderly residents relocating from out of state who require a nurse to travel alongside them—and Gomo makes that transition seamless. Their door-to-door service, concierge-level booking and coordination, registered nurses, and rapid deployment ensure our future residents arrive safely and comfortably.

What we love most is their constant communication and reassurance for family members every step of the way. 💙

Canterfield loves GOMO , and we look forward to welcoming our next out-of-state resident with their exceptional support!

The act of painting stimulates various brain areas involved in memory, attention, and problem-solving, which helps maintain brain health. It can also stir dormant memories, sometimes even encouraging speech or recognition, and helps our residents focus on a single task, being present in the moment.
