Vevara Dementia Care can provide experienced staff to help you maintain your quality of life while remaining in your own home. We create a specialised dementia care plan with you. This might include:
Alzheimer’s care and dementia care are often treated as the same thing. But that’s not necessarily true. While Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia, it’s not the only one.
Other forms of dementia include conditions such as vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. These conditions share a number of symptoms to Alzheimer’s, but they also come with unique challenges. Each type of dementia has a different cause. This leads to varying symptoms and causes them to progress in differing ways.
According to research carried out by the Alzheimer’s Society, 1 in 6 people over the age of 80 have dementia in Spain and the figures are predicted to rise.
Dementia is commonly mistaken as a condition. However, it’s an umbrella term that is used to describe a common set of symptoms that may include memory loss and difficulties with thinking, problem-solving or language. A person with dementia may also experience mood or behavioural changes. These changes can be small initially but increasingly can affect daily life.
However, dementia doesn’t mean someone is unable to do things for themselves but rather they just need some extra support, to help them adapt and learn how to live with dementia.
It depends on the level of care needed. Care at home allows people to stay in their own environment and doesn’t involve the distress and upset of moving. Change can be difficult but it’s particularly challenging for those with dementia.
However, if the level of daily care needed is significant it may be safer and appropriate to consider a care home where specialist resources and nursing care are available.
It’s recommended that if someone with dementia is not able to live safely independently or as dementia progresses, then it’s the right time to start looking into care arrangements.
