Dementia care in Brighton

Why dementia home care is a good option

Care at home is hugely beneficial to someone living with dementia, simply because being in a familiar environment, with familiar things all around can be comforting and help memory recall. The confusion of having to relocate to an unfamiliar place, compounded with the unsettledness that naturally comes from moving somewhere new can be detrimental to a person living with dementia’s health, both physically and mentally.

Care at home can truly make all the difference though, as your carer comes to you, in the place that you love and would never want to leave. This has such a marked benefit to your wellbeing and is truly the best of both worlds as you are expertly cared for, in the place you love best.

Dementia care services tailored to you

Dementia care from the Brighton branch can take the form of visiting care, where your carer will come to you at pre-arranged times of the day and carry out your care needs, or live-in care in Brighton, where your carer lives in your home with you and is a reassuring presence around the clock. Regardless of whether you require visiting or live-in care, your carers will be able to undertake whatever your flexible support plan contains, such as mobility support, medication, meal preparation, housework and so much more. And because your support plan is flexible, if your needs change so will it, with no compromise in your care at all. All of our carers are highly trained and experienced in dementia which is why Helping Hands is widely considered the dementia specialist amongst homecare companies.
