Dementia care

We provide specialised dementia care at home through our nationwide team of experts. We offer private dementia care services focused on managing symptoms while providing emotional support. We understand the challenges of living with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, and aim to address them. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive condition that requires comprehensive support and resources. We are committed to providing the necessary assistance to individuals and their families, ensuring they receive the best possible care.

Dementia can shrink one's world as it progresses, making life outside the home challenging. Our in-home care helps maintain a familiar environment and routines, allowing your loved one to continue enjoying life's important moments. Being in familiar surroundings is crucial for individuals with mild-to-moderate dementia, as it enhances their ability to cope with the condition. Whereas transitioning to new routines and environments can be daunting. Staying in their own home is beneficial for maintaining independence and comfort amidst the challenges presented by dementia.

Our live-in care services are tailored to your family's unique needs, offering a compassionate and flexible approach.

What is Dementia Diagnosis?

Dementia is the term for a range of similar progressive symptoms and conditions that affect the normal functioning of the brain and memory. After a dementia diagnosis, individuals and their families often face emotional and practical challenges, highlighting the importance of support services and resources available to people with dementia. Dementia UK is a national charity providing advice and support through specialised nurses.

The brain is made up of billions of neurons, or nerve cells, that communicate with each other through chemical signals. Dementia causes these neurons to deteriorate, making it harder for the brain to function normally.

The effects it has on the body are often small to start with, then progressively become more intense as dementia progresses. The symptoms that someone with dementia experiences will depend on two factors: the disease that is causing dementia and the parts of the brain that are affected.

What is Live-in Care for Dementia?

Dementia care is about helping you or your loved one have the support needed to continue living at home and leading a fulfilled life. A live-in carer plays a vital role in providing consistent, personalised care for individuals with dementia, ensuring comprehensive support and tailored care at home. At Cerise Healthcare, we appreciate that understanding what the person prefers in their care routine is crucial to providing personalised support. Our specialist carers are here to work with you and your family members to create a routine that promotes as much independence as possible.
