DEMENTIA AND ALZHEIMER'S CARE
At FirstCol, we have been providing dementia care for our clients for many years. Through the experience of our Management Team and over this time we’ve developed a real understanding of the needs of people affected by the condition.
We understand the challenges often inherent in supporting someone with dementia. This can be challenging for both the family and professionals. We are committed to providing holistic, high quality, person-centred care and support to both clients and their families.
Our practical understanding of Dementia as an illness helps us to provide appropriate psychological and emotional support.
We have developed creative and innovative ways for both our clients and client’s families to live well with dementia. Our robust induction training and specialist Advanced Dementia Programme means our team are not only highly skilled, they are continually mentored and supported to provide the highest possible care.
