Dementia care: what it means
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.

- How do you avoid using medication to manage behaviour?
- What do you do when someone is distressed, or wants to leave?
- How do you help with eating and drinking when appetite drops?
- How will you keep the family involved as needs change?

For 2026/27, the Homecare Association says council-funded home care in England is only sustainable at £34.42 an hour or more. Source: Lottie Care Index, Q3 2026. See our full cost guide.
Can Nottingham council help 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) Nottingham 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 Nottingham council.
How can I pick between agencies in Wollaton?
Check how recent each CQC report is first: 2 of the 21 on this page were inspected or rated in the past two years, and 4 have an older report. Next ask three things: will staff be consistent, what happens about missed visits, and what is the full price? See the checklist.
