Condition Types

Dementia is a common condition that affects about 800,000 people in the UK. The risk of developing dementia increases as you get older, and the condition is most prevalent in people over the age of 65.

Dementia Care at Home

Most people with dementia will eventually need live-in care if they are to remain in their own home.  Although dementia can seem like a challenging issue to face for families, with the right professional live in care and support, the individual’s suffering from the condition can still enjoy an active, happy and fulfilling life in their own homes.

Parkinson’s disease is a condition in which parts of the brain becomes progressively damaged over many years. A person with Parkinson’s disease can also experience a wide range of other physical and psychological symptoms, including depression, constipation, problems sleeping (insomnia), loss of sense of smell (anosmia) and memory problems.

Parkinson’s Care at Home

A diagnosis of Parkinson’s doesn’t necessarily mean moving out of a familiar home and into residential care, even as the disease progresses. With on-going support from a Parkinson’s care specialist, you can continue to live independently, staying in control of your life and home, close to your family and friends.

We will work with you to design a care plan built around your preferences, needs and choices and a live-in Parkinson’s care specialist can provide support for tasks that are becoming more challenging for you to do alone.

Having a stroke can change someone’s life forever. A stroke is a serious, life-threatening medical condition that occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off.

Strokes are a medical emergency and urgent treatment is essential because the sooner a person receives treatment for a stroke, the less damage is likely to happen.

Stroke Care at Home

Some people need to have a long period of rehabilitation before they can recover their former independence, while many will never fully recover and will need support adjusting to living with the effects of their stroke.

Around half the people who have a stroke will be dependent on some form of care for help with their daily activities. The process of rehabilitation will be specific to you, and will depend on your symptoms and how severe they are.

Research suggests that recuperating in your own home following a stroke can have a very positive effect on recovery. Working with a team of specialists including physiotherapists, psychologists, occupational therapists, speech therapists and specialist nurses and doctors, live-in carers can help individuals with everyday tasks that become more difficult, or even impossible, to do after a stroke.

Familiar surroundings can help people more easily learn or relearn skills and adapt to any physical limitations that may be present after a stroke. Living at home is highly motivational and promotes independence – two important factors for precipitating recovery.

We are able to support a wide range of specialist medical conditions through our complex care and nursing care service including:

• Acquired brain injuries.
• Spinal injuries.
• Ventilator dependencies.
• Learning disabilities.
• Mental health conditions.
• Neurological disorders
