At Dementia Concern, we provide a monitoring and support service for people with dementia who live alone.
Those eligible for this service will be assigned a community support worker (CSW), who will continue to support the person.
CSWs provide on-going emotional and practical support via phone calls and home visits. This better enables a person with dementia to remain living at home. We will regularly monitor the situation to ensure relevant and effective services are in place, as well as helping to ensure the person with dementia attends key appointments.
This service is unique in offering a range of support and interventions which address complex problems and plugs gaps in services. CSWs liaise with other services, carers, and health care professionals to advocate and support the person with dementia. This service is free of charge.
