When memory fades, home can still be a safe and meaningful place.

Full Bloom provides specialized in-home dementia and senior memory care. Services include personal care, cognitive engagement, companionship, mobility and safety support, and emotional reassurance. Every care plan is tailored to the person’s Life Story and changing needs.

While dementia and cognitive decline are our specialty, we also support individuals with related conditions, including Parkinson’s. If you're unsure whether we're a fit, we’re happy to talk it through. We also offer a Safety Net program for families not yet in need of full dementia care.

We provide in-home senior memory care throughout the Greater Chicago North Shore, including Lake Forest, Lake Bluff, Highland Park, Winnetka and more. Families outside this area can still reach out—we may be able to help or offer a trusted referral. We typically provide care for individuals and couples in their homes, but can also provide 1:1 support in a community environment.

Memory care usually refers to care provided inside a facility, whereas dementia care at home delivers the same expertise in the person’s own environment. In-home memory care offers one-on-one attention, preserved routines, comfort in familiar surroundings, and continuity with consistent caregivers. Full Bloom provides all memory care at home, designed around the individual, not a facility schedule.

Dementia care at home is typically private pay, but Full Bloom Memory Care can help families navigate long-term care insurance reimbursement when applicable.

Families can get started by calling or messaging us. We begin with a brief introduction, followed by a Discovery Meeting, then develop a personalized in-home memory care plan based on your loved one’s Life Story and needs.

A Discovery Meeting is a no-pressure conversation where we learn about your loved one’s routines, history, preferences, and current challenges. It also gives families a chance to ask questions and determine whether our model is the right fit.

A Life Story is a comprehensive deep dive into your loved one’s personal history, routines, values, preferences, and identity before cognitive changes began. We use this information to train caregivers so they understand who the person is—not just their diagnosis—allowing for familiar routines, meaningful engagement, and highly personalized memory care at home.

Yes. With trained caregivers, a structured safety plan, and support tailored to the person’s abilities, many individuals can remain at home throughout their entire dementia journey. In-home memory care reduces disorientation, maintains dignity, and helps families avoid unnecessary moves or facility transitions.
