The path to great care starts with one simple step: Ask. Listen. Involve. Because when care is shared, so is control — and that’s how everyone wins. #CareChoices #LiveInCareHub #HomeCare

Dementia is the broad term used to describe a number of different conditions affecting the brain, including Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, and over 100 more forms. Today, we’re shining a light on vascular dementia. It’s the second most common type of dementia (after Alzheimer's disease) and everyone experiences it differently. The most common symptoms of vascular dementia during the early stages are: 🧠 Problems with planning or organising, making decisions or solving problems 🧠 Difficulties following a series of steps (such as when cooking a meal) 🧠 Slower speed of thought 🧠 Problems concentrating, including short periods of sudden confusion. A person in the early stages may also have difficulties with their memory and their language. There are also different types of vascular dementia, which are all a result of problems with blood supply to parts of the brain, which then become damaged. If you, or someone you know, is affected by dementia we are here for you. Please our Dementia Support Line on 0333 150 3456. Learn more about the different types of vascular dementia 👇alzheimers.org.uk/about-deme…

Care homes aren't for everyone — and that's okay. When it comes to caring for a loved one, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. We’re here to help families explore an option that’s often overlooked but deeply life-changing: live-in care. linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… #CareChoices

“Where’s Jackie?” 💔 Just three words—and yet they speak volumes. Lady Stewart’s quiet question offers a moving glimpse into the reality of #dementia, a condition that affects far more than memory. #SirJackieStewart #UnitedAgainstDementia linkedin.com/feed/update/urn…
