ALZHEIMER’S is considered to be the most common form of dementia, with the majority of people with dementia living in residential care facilities.
Those who live at home mostly live with family, however carers need external assistance as dementia progresses. The transition to residential care is very difficult for all concerned.
Staff at TLC Aged Care understand and cater for the needs of people living with dementia.
“We ensure our staff are properly trained and resourced for the task at hand,” said TLC Aged Care management.
