Home Instead New Forest Dementia Care

At Home Instead New Forest, we are specialists in Dementia Care. We understand that change can be emotional for those living with dementia. That’s why we offer the highest quality condition led care to the people in our local community.

Looking into care options for a loved one that you are concerned about is the right thing to do. 

Home Instead New Forest offers a couple of Dementia Care options such as:

Visiting Dementia Care

Visiting Dementia Care is where a Care Pro will come to your home to provide hourly care. Many of our clients enjoy the companionship of their Care Pro and take part in activities in the community.

Visiting care allows for a Care Pro to provide support and assistance when it’s needed most. Whether that be at meal times or throughout the day.

Live in Dementia Care

Live in dementia care is becoming increasingly popular as it’s a fantastic alternative for those who want longer periods of care without wanting to move into a residential care facility.

A Care Pro will reside in your home and provide care on a schedule around the times you feel are best. Live in care is one of the safest care options available as it reduces contact with others and care is provided in the comfort of your own home. 

All of our dementia care options are tailored to each client’s individual needs.

Knowing When to Get Help

Dementia has far-reaching effects. It will also impact the families of those with the condition. As dementia progresses, you may notice all sorts of changes in your loved one’s behaviour.

Things such as memory loss, changes in actions, decline in social activities, problems with nutrition & hydration, and keeping healthy. Although these are common symptoms, dementia affects everyone differently and being a full-time carer can sometimes be very challenging for a friend or family member.

We understand that finding the right care for your loved one can become quite an overwhelming

Dementia Care at Home

At Home Instead New Forest, we are a little different to other care providers. We take the time to understand both you and the person with dementia and build a plan around your requirements.

All of our care is person-centred. This means that care is based on the needs of the individual rather than the service.

We get to know exactly what is required and carefully match a Care Pro with your loved one to ensure everyone is happy and that they get the best dementia care possible.

Our Care Pros Undergo Specialist Dementia Training

Home Instead has created a unique dementia training programme that is accredited by City & Guilds.

Our award winning training equips our Care Professionals with knowledge, methodologies, and tactics. They learn how to give people living with dementia the best quality of care. It also teaches them the best solutions and when to seek out further advice.

Having a Care Pro is like having a true companion; someone you can completely trust that will go above and beyond. Someone who will help your loved one communicate better, increase their confidence, keep active and stay safe and shielded in their own home.

All Care Pros will have had essential DBS checks (Disclosure and Barring Service).
