Use of Memory Aids and Routines
We always encourage consistent routines and use tools like labels, calendars, and memory aids to reduce confusion, while supporting engagement in meaningful activities such as reminiscence therapy, hobbies, or music.
Ongoing Monitoring and Communication
Regularly reviewing care plans, conducting risk and safety assessments, and maintaining open communication with family and healthcare professionals helps us to ensure care is appropriately adjusted as our customers needs change.
Companionship and Emotional Support
Dementia can cause confusion for many, which can be frightening for the person experiencing it. Our carers are not just there to provide physical help—they also offer emotional support and companionship, reducing isolation and improving mental wellbeing.
A Sympathetic Approach
Our carers have undergone immersive simulations that replicate the challenges faced by individuals living with dementia when performing everyday tasks. This valuable experience enables them to better understand the frustrations their customers may encounter and adapt their approach accordingly. As a result, they build more empathetic, effective working relationships that help reduce stress for both the individual and the carer.
