How Can Dementia Care at Home Make a Difference in Dorchester?

Live-in care provides families with peace of mind while ensuring that the person with dementia remains in their own home. The individual receives round-the-clock assistance from a live-in care professional tailored to their daily routine and preferences. From help with bathing and medication management to companionship and support with household tasks, this personalised care makes everyday life easier for both the individual and their family.

The term dementia encompasses a variety of conditions that impact brain function, such as memory, problem-solving, and language skills. Alzheimer’s, vascular dementia, and Parkinson’s disease dementia are among the most common types. Each condition has its own set of symptoms, which can progress over time, making specialised care increasingly important.

Our trained care professionals at Home Instead Dorchester support individuals at every stage of dementia, ensuring they receive the care and attention they need as their condition changes.
