Dementia Care
Dementia Care
At R4R Home Care Services, we have much experience providing care for people with dementia. We know very well how important it is to be there for them and to treat them with the kind of understanding, respect, and dignity that preserve their identity and sense of worth. That’s our mission, and that’s what we focus our care service on. Perhaps because we understand so well what dementia can do to a person’s mental and physical capabilities, and because we understand the many changes a person with dementia will go through, we feel a unique empathy for them.
The most important thing about our carers is the priority we place on feeling valuable and acting with courtesy. We are committed at all times to safeguarding our clients’ privacy and treating them with the utmost respect. We have a deep, deep understanding of the human need to have a safe and private space in order to develop a healthy, positive self-image. We also understand our clients’ emotions because, as part of our training, we learn to be good listeners.
Our top priority is to provide choices that enable the individual to assert their independence. Additionally, we seek to make everything the individual does, from morning routines to personal hobbies, a wholly positive part of their day. These two tenets—choice and positive engagement—are crucial to the overall quality of life of the people we support.
Furthermore, we understand that dementia affects not only those who experience it, but also the loved ones involved in their lives. That’s why we make it our mission to assist and understand our clients’ families and friends. These individuals may very well feel overwhelmed and without the support they desperately need.
If you think that our services might be useful, do not hesitate to get in touch. We are available to speak with you in order to determine how we can configure our support to best serve your particular requirements, and we are equally comfortable operating in a more hands-on or a more hands-off fashion, as the situation calls for.
