Dementia care

If you or a loved one has had a dementia diagnosis, it can be helpful to understand the support that’s available to you as well as the general symptoms and stages.

For some people, living at home isn’t practical, and they need the permanent support of dementia care in residential aged care. But for many people, remaining at home is not only possible, but actively supported through a home care package and respite care.
