Dementia Care At Home
According to the Alzheimer's Society in 2017, there are 850,000 people with dementia in the UK, with numbers set to rise to over 1 million by 2025. This will soar to 2 million by 2051. The statistics are staggering and the need for the appropriate support is increasing.
In addition, Parkinson's disease can also cause dementia. Parkinson’s is a progressive neurological condition, usually associated with tremor, stiffness and slowness of movement. As it is can affect the brain, problems gets worse over time and memory loss is an issue.
