What is Dementia Care?

Many care homes provide specialist dementia care to those who have been diagnosed with the condition. Dementia commonly affects part of the brain including the ability to remember, think critically or communicate with others. No matter a person’s progression, they will eventually need full-time dementia care. It often gets to a point when a loved one is no longer able to look after someone due to the condition worsening and struggling to meet their demanding needs.

A dedicated dementia care team will provide person centred care within a warm and welcoming setting. Assistance is provided with any task a resident may need help with, which may be more for some than others. It’s important that those living with dementia feel relaxed and content with others and their environment, therefore dementia care homes are thoughtfully furnished to be considerate of those that can be affected by their surroundings.
