Dementia Care

Coping with a family member with Alzheimer’s disease or Dementia is not just incredibly stressful, but distressing for everyone involved. It’s as important to look after your own health, as it is that of the person with dementia. When you’re caring for someone else, it’s easy to overlook your own needs. But looking after your health and making time for yourself can help you feel better and cope better with your caring role.

Our dementia care services in the Trafford area allow your loved one to remain in their familiar surroundings for as long as possible whilst giving you the peace of mind that they are being properly cared for.

Our services cover the full range of personal care and domestic duties and are carried out by fully trained and DBS checked staff.

Care packages are uniquely tailored to the individual – whether you require a few hours per week or a 24/7 home care package.

People with Alzheimer’s disease may not drink enough, simply because they don’t realise they’re thirsty.

This puts them at risk of:

• urinary tract infections (UTIs)
• constipation
• headaches

These can lead to increased confusion and make the symptoms of dementia worse.

Also, as dementia progresses it affects people’s ability to express themselves so you may need to learn new ways to understand and communicate with them.

Contact us today and our care team will arrange a suitable time to visit you, your family or an authorised representative to fully understand your needs and explain how Beloved Homecare can help.

We also provide dementia care in Altrincham and Urmston as well as other locations in the Trafford area:
