Dementia care: what it means

Providers that support people living with dementia register it as a specialism with CQC. Good dementia care keeps routines familiar, helps with eating and drinking, and handles distress without leaning on medication. Staff are trained to keep people safe while leaving them as much independence as possible.

Before you choose: questions on dementia care

  2. How do you avoid using medication to manage behaviour?
  3. What do you do when someone is distressed, or wants to leave?

  5. How will you keep the family involved as needs change?
