Dementia Care
The specialist volunteers and staff in our Dementia & Carer services make sure that people with dementia and their loved ones are supported to live as well as they possibly can. We offer:
- Day Care for people with dementia, including a service for people under 65 years of age.
- Reminder Finders – specialist groups for people recently diagnosed with dementia.
- Stanhope Court, our Dementia Residential Care Home.
- Carer support service providing emotional and practical support and training for carers.
Day Care
For people diagnosed with dementia, coping with a such a diagnosis, in any form, can be a difficult time for all involved. Sometimes it is important for a carer to be able to have a break from caring for a few hours, reassured that their loved one is being looked after in a safe and welcoming environment.
For people who are becoming frail and isolated, getting out of the house and being able to socialise with other people, whilst also receiving help with any personal care that they need, is essential.
Our Day Care centres are designed to provide exactly this type of support.
