Dementia care

Dementia is a complex condition characterised by a decline in memory and cognitive function due to brain disease, leading to significant impairment in various aspects of an individual’s life. The effects of dementia encompass memory loss, thinking abilities, language skills, and more, often resulting in a gradual and progressive decline. Alzheimer’s disease stands as the most prevalent form of dementia. While most dementia care is undertaken by family members, the challenges and demands of caregiving can be both fulfilling and taxing.

Family caregiver's role

Care begins with family support, from emotional comfort to physical aid. Caregivers adapt to evolving needs, assisting with tasks and companionship as dementia progresses.

Balancing rewards and challenges

Caregiving offers fulfillment alongside stress, with duties ranging from simple companionship to complex care. As demands grow, transitioning to professional care becomes vital.

Professional care transition

Jane's Story

“Plett Home Care has been a true blessing for my family. As my mother’s dementia progressed, we were struggling to provide her with the care she needed. The caregivers from Plett Home Care not only offered exceptional assistance with her daily activities but also treated her with kindness and respect. Their expertise in dementia care made a significant difference in her well-being. My mother was able to remain in her own home, surrounded by familiar things, and that brought her so much comfort. I’m incredibly grateful for the support and peace of mind they provided to both my mother and our family.“
