Why care at home is a good option for somebody with dementia
Home is often the most reassuring place for someone living with dementia. Being surrounded by familiar items and routines can help reduce stress and confusion. With home care, you’ll receive consistent support from a carer who understands your needs.

When to choose dementia care at home
Adjusting to a dementia diagnosis isn’t easy, but having a supportive carer can make a big difference to many aspects of day-to-day life. If you're at a stage of your dementia journey where you're physically or mentally struggling to keep up with the pace of life, a little extra help at home can go a long way. Our lovely carers focus on helping you maintain your independence, offering support where needed without taking over.

Expert care tailored to your needs
We believe care should reflect the individual. Our team will work closely with you to create a plan that suits your needs and preferences, ensuring you're able to live as well as possible with your condition. Your Plymouth Care Manager will also review your care regularly and make changes as needed, so that you're never left feeling isolated or unsupported.

At Helping Hands, it's always been the case that we employ and train all our carers directly, so we can guarantee a high standard of care. You won’t have to worry about unfamiliar agency staff who haven't been recruited, vetted and trained to our high standards.
Carers complete a comprehensive training course when they start with us, which includes a large section on dementia care, and continue learning through regular updates.
