Providing compassionate dementia companionship & care at home
Providing compassionate dementia companionship & care at home
Caring for a loved one with dementia is no easy task. If someone you love is suffering from dementia, it's essential to ensure they remain as comfortable as possible. That's why home-care is so valuable - it allows you to enjoy the highest possible levels of care while remaining in a comforting and familiar environment.
Managing the care provisions of someone suffering from dementia is never easy.
And as it's one of the core elements of successful dementia care, companionship is something that you need to consider too. A cold, impersonal care service will do far more harm than good - especially in advanced dementia.
Routine is of the utmost importance
A dependable, reliable care provider will bring a degree of stability with the home care package, making managing the patient's dementia that much easier. A smiling, friendly face will help prevent confusion or fear during the course of regular care tasks, so compassion is key.
Home-care allows the individual to remain in their own environment. Surrounded by their belongings, their mementos, their possessions, and their family, they will be able to enjoy the best standard of care.
No two patients suffer from dementia the same way
so at Willows Home Care, we put together a tailored care plan based on individual needs. We'll learn about your current routine, how you're currently managing care, and what timetables you're working with to ensure as smooth a transition as possible into our care plan.
Our manager, Charlotte, will personally oversee the development of the care package, ensuring that the right carers are selected from our team to provide care. With the carer in place, we'll establish a timetable to make sure the patient gets the care they need, and benefits from the smiling, happy nature of our carers.
Companionship, conversation, and mental stimulation - these are all often forgotten parts of lesser care plans, but they form a large part of what Willows Home Care seeks to provide dementia patients.
