Dementia and Alzheimer's Care

A dementia diagnosis changes how a whole family plans, not just how one person lives. The guides below cover what the different types look like day to day, how symptoms tend to progress, and the practical things that help at home: keeping routines predictable, easing agitation in the late afternoon, and communicating when words start to fail.

Our care team includes Certified Dementia Practitioners, so much of this comes from work we do every week rather than from research alone. If you are weighing up whether your parent can stay at home safely, start with the symptoms and stages guides, then look at what in-home dementia care actually involves.
