What is Dementia Care?
Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of symptoms that affect a person’s memory as well as their cognitive abilities in order to carry out daily tasks. Some individuals living with dementia may have a less severe type of dementia, whereas others will require a higher degree of care and support in daily life.
Dementia care in a care home enables a person to live a full life while in the capable hands of a professional and experienced care team. Many people will often take on the duty of a carer for their loved one at home, however, this often takes its toll over a period of time, and as the condition progresses. Moving a family member to a dementia care home will help to relieve the stresses and worries of everyone involved.
