Defining Dementia Care

Dementia is a condition that affects people in a number of different ways, but most commonly affects a person’s speech and memory. We have witnessed those with dementia thrive with the right care and support. Here at Alexander House Care Home, we appreciate that no two individuals experiencing dementia are alike, and care and support must be customised to meet their needs.

Supporting people living with dementia encompasses personal care, daily living tasks, and medical care to support overall health, happiness, and wellbeing. With all of our care types, we encourage independence and social activities to provide residents with opportunities to build relationships and live an active lifestyle.

Providing Dementia Care in Exeter

Our purpose-built care home has been designed to offer the highest level of comfort and a warm, home-from-home feeling where residents feel confident, happy, and supported in retaining as much independence as possible. Free from the worries of daily tasks, those receiving dementia care are able to focus on how they wish to spend their day.

We have a dedicated team of highly-skilled professionals and carers who know the support needed to enhance the lives of each and every resident living with us. Our wonderful staff strives to ensure each individual experiences a life that is suited just to them. When exemplary care is matched with a broad range of activities, entertainment, and experiences, we ensure that residents’ lives are fulfilled every day.

When is Dementia Care suitable?

In the early stages of dementia, a person might need to be reminded about daily tasks or need support if they are struggling to do them, but as the condition progresses, they may require long-term, 24-hour specialist dementia care that can be provided by dementia care homes and nursing homes. Our knowledgeable and experienced carers make the effort to build a relationship with each and every resident, and with the help of family or a loved one, create an accurate picture of their lives, ensuring that both medical and wellness needs are addressed and individuals are comprehensively cared for, for many years.

We understand that the search for the right care for you or your loved one can be a confusing and emotional experience. Our Home manager welcomes the opportunity to discuss your own care needs and offer expert advice to help you make an informed decision on what’s best for you. We are regulated by the Care Quality Commission which is an independent regulator that inspects and assesses Exeter care homes and nursing homes across England.
