Dementia Care in Cheadle

Staying at home surrounded by familiar people, objects and pets can have a positive impact on someone living with dementia, as it can help to minimise anxiety and confusion. This is because a person can become agitated if they are bombarded with loud noise, unfamiliar sounds or voices and they have no control over their environment. It can be difficult to have a truly personalised care experience in a residential home, due to the ratio of carers to customers and the rigid routines that have to be followed, however if you have care at home you are in complete control of everything that occurs. You decide what time you get up, eat your meals and every other aspect of your life because your carers will be following a personalised support plan devised by you, your decision makers and the management team in Cheadle. Consequently, you retain control over your environment and routines and crucially, you receive one-to-one support.

Dementia care at home with Helping Hands takes two forms: visiting care and live-in care. Visiting care consists of pre-arranged calls where your carer will undertake your routine in a set amount of time, often in hour blocks. Live-in care however means the carer will live in your home with you; available around the clock to give you a constant level of companionship and care. Regardless of the type of support you choose, you will always get Helping Hands’ high standards of care, delivered by the most empathetic and compassionate carers in the industry. They will be able to undertake a whole range of tasks for you including mobility support, medication, meal preparation, housework, personal care and much more. Perhaps you have an active social life and would like your carer to accompany you to activities and appointments? No problem: they’ll take you where you need to go and maybe you’ll even enjoy coffee and cake afterwards!
