What is Dementia Care?

Dementia care is specialised care and support provided to individuals living with conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia and frontotemporal dementia, within a residential facility. Dementia is a progressive condition that affects cognitive functioning, memory, behaviour, and overall daily functioning. A specific dementia care unit in a care home provides a safe and supportive environment for individuals with dementia to ensure their well-being and positive quality of life.
