Maybe someone you know and love has been diagnosed with dementia. Or maybe you yourself have been diagnosed with early dementia. Either way, you will be busy planning for your future.
It is a very confronting and frightening time. There is a lot to consider, a lot to think about. That’s 100% correct, but there is help and support available.
At this tough time, you need to find your support base. You need to know what support services are available and how you can access services to lean on if and when you need it.
What are Dementia Care Services?
Dementia care is a specialised support system that has been designed to provide a network of help for those living with dementia and their families.
Services are provided by experienced and specifically trained carers who specialise in caring for someone with dementia. These specialist carers can help with everything from a carer for your loved one, respite, planning, accessing and utilising government funding, linking your with wrap around care services.
Carers will help your loved one with dementia to utilise their remaining skills to their fullest and ensure they remain engaged in life and family as much as possible.
Dementia Care Funding
Funding is available through programs and initiatives such as the Dementia and Aged Care Services Fund. Information is available on the Australian Government website and also state government websites.
