Our approach to dementia care.
Cheriton Homecare understands that individuals change over the course of dementia and so do their needs. Our approach to dementia care is based on the belief that individuals with dementia benefit from a home environment. Staff expertise and activities are tailored to meet their stage specific needs.
The care and support of people living through dementia require an approach that is truly focused on the individual. Our commitment is to understand the needs of the people affected by dementia and those of their families and how the two together provide effective care.
We have extensive knowledge and experience with dementia and make sure that it reflects in the care plans that we provide.
We realise through experience that providing dementia care is not just about offering practical support, but also responding to a person’s emotions and understanding the importance of a loving environment. This is an essential part of any care package when dealing with dementia. It important for people with dementia to know that they are valued and loved irrespective of their actions.
