What Is Dementia Care?

Dementia care is specialised support that helps people manage memory loss, confusion, and changes in behaviour while staying safely at home.

This type of care is structured to reduce anxiety, build confidence, and support independence.

It encompasses a range of services, from personal assistance to cognitive stimulation, helping older adults feel more grounded and secure in their daily environment.

Companion Support

Dementia Care and Companion Support naturally work hand-in-hand to enhance the quality of life for older adults facing memory challenges.

While dementia care focuses on safety, structure, and medical-related support, companion support adds emotional connection and social engagement.

Together, they create a stable, comforting routine, reducing isolation, agitation, and confusion. Many of our dementia care clients benefit from companion visits that include storytelling, shared hobbies, or a calming walk outdoors.

These moments of human connection make daily care feel more personal and less clinical.
