Live In Care

Live In Dementia Care

Dementia is an umbrella term and encompasses different forms of Dementia. Some are linked to other health conditions and others present with very specific characteristics.

Dementia Care At Home

We understand all aspects of dementia and the first thing to remember should be that a person formally diagnosed with dementia, can still have a good quality of life, with the right care and support from trained and experienced carers.  

We refer to people as ‘living with Dementia’ and whilst we are aware that this can be an incredibly challenging journey for the individual and their loved ones, we understand the unique complexities and struggles often experienced. It’s important to recognise that no two people are ever alike.

Whether you are looking for ongoing support or to just take a break from your caring responsibilities of a loved one, Live in Care are here to help.

Live In Dementia Care

Why choose live in dementia care?

  • Friends and family can still visit as easily as before.
  • An individual’s own home is filled with happy memories, which can be both stimulating and comforting to those living with dementia.
  • While in their own home, a person is less likely to be awake during the night. If they do struggle to sleep, there is someone there just to look after them and offer comfort to them on a one-to-one basis.
  • People feel a comforting sense of safety in a familiar environment, rather than a care home that can be quite a noisy and unfamiliar environment.

What Are The Different Types Of Dementia ?

Commonly known as “The 7 Stages of Alzheimer’s”, this Resiberg framework is used to measure the effects of dementia on an individual. These are as follows:

  • Stage 1 Dementia. No impairment – Dementia isn’t detectable and there are no memory problems
  • Stage 2 Dementia. Very mild decline – The individual may experience very minor memory problems.
  • Stage 3 Dementia. Mild decline – Cognitive problems are noticeable.
  • Stage 5 Dementia. Moderately severe decline – Additional assistance is required with most day-to-day tasks.
  • Stage 6 Dementia. Severe decline – The individual requires constant supervision and professional care.
  • Stage 7 Dementia. Very severe decline – The individual loses the ability to communicate or respond to their environment.

Additional Dementia information and support services can be accessed from the following charities:

Thank you, Live in Care, for enabling Mum to spend her last day at home, where she wanted to be. This has been a great comfort to us all and we couldn’t have asked for better care in the last few weeks.

The service is professional, efficient, friendly, and respectful. Nothing appears too much trouble. They made a prompt and accurate assessment of my mother’s needs and quickly identified a fantastic carer. When they had concerns about my mother’s health the service manager made a personal visit to check that everything was being done that needed to be done.

Live In Care has been brilliant. My mother had a fall and could no longer manage on her own. From the first assessment appointment, all the members of staff have been both super friendly and professional, they are always responsive, and their work is focused clearly on ensuring that Mum is happy. The carers have been extremely conscientious, and Mum now has a longer-term carer whom she feels thoroughly spoilt by. I still can’t quite believe that Mum is being taken care of so well. It has been a huge relief, and I am so glad and grateful that I found Live In Care.

Live in Care has proved to be a really great solution to living alone at home when you need that little extra help
