Dementia Care

We provide expert home care and specialised support for people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. This allows your loved one to continue living independently within the familiar environment of their own home, whilst receiving the specialised, professional care that they need. We provide physical assistance, support cognitive stimulation, offer emotional companionship, and we take pride in promoting dignity in every aspect of care.

What is Dementia Care?

 

We understand the emotional and physical toll that caring for a loved one with dementia can take on families. Our specially trained healthcare assistants provide holistic support that goes beyond basic care, ensuring your loved one remains safe and comfortable in their own home while receiving the companionship and emotional support they need.

 

Our caregivers focus on:


  • Engaging meaningful interactions to stimulate cognitive function:

  • Our caregivers provide meaningful conversation, memory-based activities, and gentle prompts which can help to support memory retention and thinking skills by encouraging regular mental stimulation.

  • Providing physical assistance with daily activities:

  • We can provide physical assistance with daily activities such as eating, taking medication, bathing, and household tasks, while ensuring that they maintain as much independence as possible.

  • Offering emotional support and companionship:

  • We’re also there to offer consistent emotional support and companionship, always being there to offer reassurance and a listening ear, helping to reduce feelings of loneliness, anxiety and confusion.

  • Creating a safe, familiar environment that promotes dignity and comfort:

  • We create a safe and familiar environment in their home, promoting comfort and dignity while maintaining the routine they’re used to in surroundings they recognise.
