At Constantia Live-in Care we understand the important factors when living with Dementia. Our professional Dementia care staff seek to maintain regular routine and this is best done whilst remaining within the familiar surroundings of one’s own home.
Reminiscing is something we all do. The older we get, the more likely we are to fall back on our memories to generate those sought-after happy moments; regardless of whether we are alone or socialising with friends and relatives. Reminiscence is a perfectly natural activity that can have a great therapeutic effect on Dementia sufferers. Triggers can often bring back those memories that reveal a rich stream of insight and experience that is otherwise hard to bring to the surface.
The person-centered Dementia Care plan will give the care assistant those triggers and allow a meaningful relationship to build with the client.
