What is Dementia Care?

Dementia care is specialist support for individuals living with conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, and other forms of memory loss or cognitive decline. As dementia progresses, it can affect daily routines, safety, communication, and overall quality of life.

At Meallmore, we provide more than just practical assistance - we create safe, familiar environments where residents feel calm, understood, and supported. Our specially trained teams deliver care with consistency, patience and compassion, adapting to each person’s needs at every stage of the condition.

We focus on maintaining independence wherever possible, while offering support with personal care, behaviour management, and emotional wellbeing - always involving families along the way.

Supporting people with dementia in every aspect of daily life

We offer tailored care for residents at different stages of dementia, adapting support to meet changing needs while preserving dignity and identity.

Specialist Trained Dementia Teams

Our staff receive enhanced dementia training focused on communication, behaviour, and memory support. We foster a calm, reassuring environment through familiarity and compassion.

Safe and Stimulating Environments

Our homes feature clear signage, memory boxes, quiet spaces, and adapted layouts designed for safety and orientation. Outdoor areas and sensory spaces help promote connection and calm.

Personalised Daily Routines for Everyone

We build routines around each person’s past habits, interests and life story. This familiarity reduces anxiety and promotes a greater sense of control and purpose.

Nutrition and Mealtime Support

We offer balanced meals in calm dining environments with tailored assistance for those with changing dietary needs, swallowing issues, or reduced appetite.

Meaningful Activities & Engagement

We use music therapy, reminiscence sessions, arts and crafts, and group interaction to provide cognitive stimulation and support emotional wellbeing.

Family Communication & Involvement

We work closely with families to build trust, share progress, and ensure they remain connected and involved in their loved one’s care journey.

Specialist care for all types and stages of dementia

Our teams at Meallmore are experienced in supporting people with a wide range of dementia-related conditions. Whether someone is in the early stages of memory loss or living with more advanced cognitive decline, we provide personalised, specialist care that adapts to their needs with dignity and compassion.

Alzheimer’s Disease

The most common form of dementia, Alzheimer’s affects memory, thinking, and daily functioning. We provide structured routines, calm spaces, and meaningful activities to promote reassurance and preserve independence for as long as possible.

Vascular Dementia

Often linked to strokes or reduced blood flow to the brain, vascular dementia can present with sudden changes in cognition and mobility. Our teams provide close monitoring, clinical support, and rehabilitation-focused care.

Frontotemporal Dementia

This type of dementia affects personality, behaviour, and language. We deliver compassionate care that helps residents manage emotional changes, supports safe communication, and maintains a sense of identity.

Lewy Body Dementia

Characterised by visual hallucinations, movement difficulties, and fluctuating alertness, Lewy body dementia requires a calm, consistent environment and expert support. Our teams provide safe routines, fall prevention, and ongoing symptom management.

Mixed Dementia Diagnoses

Some individuals experience symptoms of more than one type of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. We offer blended care strategies that respond to changing needs and involve families throughout.

Mild to Advanced Cognitive Decline

From early signs of memory loss to advanced dementia, we provide thoughtful, stage-appropriate care that preserves dignity and comfort. Our homes are designed to reduce anxiety, promote familiarity, and keep residents connected to the people and memories that matter most.
