Why care at home is a good option for somebody with dementia
When dementia support becomes necessary, we believe there’s no better place to receive it than at home. Staying in your own home means you remain surrounded by familiar sights, sounds and routines, as well as treasured memories that can play an important role throughout your dementia journey.
With care at home, you’ll benefit from dedicated one-to-one support from a kind and attentive carer who’ll take the time to understand your routines, preferences and changing needs as your condition progresses.

When to choose dementia care at home
A dementia diagnosis can bring uncertainty and concern for both you and your loved ones. Having a compassionate and knowledgeable carer by your side can make those early stages much easier to navigate.
Our carers don’t aim to take over your daily life. Instead, they’ll help you stay active and independent, supporting you in a way that allows you to continue enjoying your life and maintaining your sense of self.
As an individual progresses through the different stages of dementia, they may need additional support round-the-clock with personal care, mobility assistance, prompting with medication and someone to complete domestic duties around their home. Live-in dementia care provides 24-hour, one-to-one support for someone with dementia who needs regular assistance with all aspects of daily living.

Expert care tailored to your needs
Years of experience supporting people with dementia has shown us that no two people experience the condition in quite the same way. That’s why we build every care package around your individual circumstances from the very beginning.
Your local Swansea Care Manager will oversee your care and keep in regular contact to make sure everything is working well. If your needs change over time, they’ll adapt your support so that you always feel safe, comfortable and well cared for.

Qualified dementia carers in Swansea
Every Helping Hands carer is recruited directly by us and thoroughly vetted before joining our team. We never rely on third-party agencies, which means we maintain full control over the high standards of care we provide.
All carers complete our comprehensive four-day induction training when they join Helping Hands, which includes detailed dementia training. This knowledge is regularly refreshed through ongoing learning to ensure carers remain confident and up to date in their approach.
