Questions
Good to know
Can someone with dementia stay at home?
Often, yes. With the right support at the right times, many people living with dementia stay safely at home for a long time. We review the care plan as needs change, and live-in care is available when more support is needed.
Will it be the same carers each time?
We aim for a small, consistent team, because familiar faces are especially important for people living with dementia.
Can you help if my relative is anxious in the evening?
Yes. Visits run until 10pm, seven days a week, so we can support the late afternoon and evening, when many people living with dementia feel most unsettled.
Is dementia care free in Scotland?
The personal care part of dementia care is free for adults assessed by their council as needing it. Read our guide to free personal care in Scotland.
