Living with Alzheimer’s

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia in the UK. It usually develops gradually, affecting memory first and later thinking, language and everyday abilities.

Every person’s experience is different. Staying at home, among familiar faces, belongings and routines, can help someone feel safer and more settled for as long as possible.

What families often tell us is hard

  • Forgetting recent events, appointments or medication
  • Getting confused about time or place, or becoming lost
  • Difficulty with washing, dressing, cooking and other daily tasks
  • Feeling anxious, unsettled or low, especially later in the day
  • Family members becoming exhausted from caring day and night

How our carers can help

  • Consistent carers who take time to get to know the person and their history
  • Keeping familiar daily routines and a safe home environment
  • Patient help with washing, dressing, meals and drinks
  • Medication prompts and support
  • Companionship and meaningful activities
  • Night care or live-in care as needs increase
  • Regular updates and respite for family members

Our carers provide personal care and practical support, not nursing or medical treatment. We work alongside your GP, nurses and specialist teams. This page is general information, not medical advice: please speak to your GP, call NHS 111, or call 999 in an emergency.

Common questions

Can someone with Alzheimer’s keep living at home?

Often, yes. With the right support, from a few visits a week to 24-hour live-in care, many people stay at home for a long time. We review care regularly as needs change.

What if my relative refuses help?

This is common. We introduce carers gently, go at the person’s pace and focus on building trust. Talk to us about your situation and we will suggest how to start.

Are your carers trained in dementia care?

Yes. Our carers receive specialist dementia training and take time to learn what helps each person on a difficult day.
