Dementia currently impacts approximately 850,000 individuals across the United Kingdom, with projections indicating a significant rise in this number. By 2051, more than 2 million individuals are expected to be diagnosed with dementia. These figures represent not merely statistics; they reflect the countless families supporting loved ones with dementia who necessitate specialized care and assistance to maintain a fulfilling quality of life.

You may be contemplating how to effectively address dementia-related behaviors or how to offer dignified dementia care at home.

What are the benefits of Dementia Home Care?

In-home care for dementia patients presents numerous advantages for both the patients and their families. Our dementia home care service at Safehands provides connections to qualified dementia care professionals throughout the United Kingdom, equipped to deliver high-quality care and support to your loved ones.

The benefits of dementia care at home include:

• Preservation of Independence and Dignity:

We understand the confusion that dementia patients may experience as their motor skills and memory decline. Having a dedicated caregiver readily available to provide essential support can help patients feel more independent and maintain their dignity while managing these challenges from the comfort of their own homes.

• Personalized Care Approach:

One of the primary advantages of dementia home care is the ability to provide individualized care tailored to the unique needs of your loved one. Unlike standard nursing facilities or residential care homes, dementia home care facilitates the creation of a custom care plan, ensuring your loved one receives the focused attention they deserve without competing for limited resources.

With in-home dementia care, you can monitor any changes in your loved one’s health, allowing assigned caregivers to provide targeted support while keeping you informed throughout the process.

• 24-Hour Access:

Contrary to nursing institutions, which often enforce strict visitation policies, dementia care at home enables you to visit your loved one at your convenience.

This flexibility allows you to manage your daily responsibilities while providing peace of mind, knowing that your loved one is receiving the highest quality of care in your absence.
