Ways a Care Home Can Help Someone Living with Dementia

Dementia Care

Our dedicated team at The Fleet is committed to providing the highest standard of Dementia Care for our residents. Our staff members undergo continuous and extensive training, equipping them with the qualifications needed to effectively support individuals with various stages of dementia.

We believe that building meaningful connections with our residents, their close friends, and family members simplifies life for everyone involved. To achieve this, we take the time to gather a comprehensive understanding of their life history before they join our community, ensuring that we can tailor their care to promote their overall health and well-being.

Respite Care

Respite care serves as a short-term care solution that enables caregivers to temporarily entrust their caregiving responsibilities to a professional care team. It is also an option for individuals who have recently been hospitalised or faced an illness and require assistance during their recuperation process.

Furthermore, respite care can be valuable for those contemplating a transition to a residential care home. In such instances, individuals can stay at the facility for a few weeks, allowing them to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the establishment and make an informed decision. Our dedicated staff members are committed to ensuring that every individual receives the care and support they need, regardless of the duration of their stay.
