Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) August 19, 2015

Home Care Assistance, a leading provider of in-home care for seniors, has been named a semi-finalist for the 2015 Innovations in HealthcareSM ABBY Awards. The award recognizes companies for their innovative medical or healthcare information technology, approaches to healthcare, or consumer-empowerment services. Home Care Assistance has been selected for its innovation in brain health as a result of the company's Cognitive Therapeutics Method™, a patent-pending cognitive stimulation program that aims to improve quality of life for older adults by enhancing mental acuity as well as delaying onset and slowing the progression of symptoms of cognitive decline.

"We are honored to be recognized as a semi-finalist for this prestigious award," said Kathy Johnson, PhD, Founder and CEO of Home Care Assistance. "Over 47 million people worldwide are currently living with dementia. The Cognitive Therapeutics Method is our proactive solution to a growing problem by offering individuals control over their long-term brain health."

On Tuesday, August 25th, the ABBY Awards Finalist Selection Committee will determine which nine of this year's 38 semi-finalists will advance. The selection committee is comprised of ABL members that are industry experts in the four award categories: Medical Technology, Information Technology, Innovative Approach and Consumer Empowerment. One winner will be chosen from each category and finalists will compete in the Awards Event on Wednesday, October 21st, 2015 in Long Beach, California.

Medication is often the first line of treatment for symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia but it is not a cure. The Cognitive Therapeutics Method is a non-pharmacological approach to delaying the onset and slowing the progression of cognitive decline. Developed on the basis of neuroplasticity, or the brain's ability to adapt to external influences, the Method targets five primary cognitive domains for change – executive functioning, attention, language, visual-spatial perception and memory – as well as several non-cognitive domains that are key to brain health. The Method is unique in its comprehensive and person-centered approach to cognitive vitality in older adults and is offered in the comfort of home.

A leading provider of live-in care for seniors, Home Care Assistance is dedicated to providing exceptional home care services across the United States, Canada and Australia. Innovative programs such as the Cognitive Therapeutics Method are elevating the standard of care worldwide.
