What to expect from dementia care
Dementia care is support from staff trained to help people living with dementia: keeping routines familiar, helping with eating and drinking, managing distress without relying on medication, and keeping people safe without taking away their independence. Providers register "dementia" as a specialism with CQC when they support people with it.
Before you choose: questions on dementia care
- Who would we call if we were worried at night or at a weekend?
- How do you get to know the person (life story, routines, likes and dislikes)?
- What dementia training do staff have, and how often is it refreshed?
- How will you keep the family involved as needs change?
- How do you help with eating and drinking when appetite drops?

Will Lincolnshire council pay for home care?
Two sources of help: Attendance Allowance, which ignores savings and is for people over State Pension age, and the council. By law (Care Act 2014) Lincolnshire council must assess care needs at no charge for people who look as if they need support; if savings and investments are under £23,250, it may pay a share once your finances are assessed, depending on income. With care at home, the house itself is not included. How to reach Lincolnshire council.
What should I look for when choosing agencies in Bourne?
Three questions matter most once you have read the latest CQC report: will the staff be consistent, what is the plan for missed visits, and what is the total cost before signing? On dates, 2 of the 9 listed had an inspection or rating within the last two years, and 4 have an older report. See the checklist.
