Dementia Care

Dementia care gives you the support you need to carry on living at home.

Dementia care is condition-led support designed to support you or your loved one as you face the specific challenges presented by your dementia. We provide dedicated dementia care to people in the comfortable, familiar surroundings of their own home. As a specialist dementia care provider, we train our carers to follow a routine that your loved one is used to and comfortable with, maintaining their independence as much as possible.

Dementia and what is it – simply

There are numerous types of dementia; conditions grouped under the generalised term “dementia” that are caused by abnormal changes to the brain, and affect the person’s memory. The brain is made up of billions of neurones (nerve cells) that communicate with each other through chemical signals. If a person has dementia, these neurones are damaged meaning these messages cannot be sent effectively which in turn affects all functions of the body.

Dementia is a term for a range of progressive conditions that affect the brain, including but not limited to:

Alzheimers, Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, Frontotemporal Dementia and Mixed Dementia
