What Is Alzheimer’s Care?
Alzheimer’s is a disease that is not only progressive, affecting memory and speech but also daily routines. More than 700,000 are currently living with Alzheimer’s in the UK and that number is only increasing each year.
Home care enables your loved one to remain as independent and comfortable as possible by providing support with personal, household and medical in-home services. Our caregivers assist with everything from breakfast and bathing, to medication prompts, and even just friendly conversation that keeps spirits aloft.
Why Choose Home-Based Alzheimer’s Care
Maintaining a household can reduce confusion, boost confidence and provide something familiar in the way of routine.
Studies suggest that people with Alzheimer’s are happier and more relaxed in their own environment, surrounded by loved ones, pets and memories.
British Elderly Care makes it possible — safely, affordably and with heart.
Our Approach: Simple, Honest, British
We think Alzheimer’s care should be easy and personal. Here’s how we work:
1
FREE home visit – We drop in, have a cuppa and chat.
2
Plan of Care – We plan around routines, habits and comfort zones.
3
Matching – We’ll match you with a trained carer who suits your loved one.
4
Continued Support – We follow-up, revise care and remain just a call away.
No call centres, no corporate — just real people helping real families.
