Unicare dementia carers are specifically trained to deal with the challenges that come when caring for a person with dementia. Our care workers have experience in the many ways the condition can develop differently in people and will tailor their care to suit the requirements of their clients. Our dementia home care plans are regularly reviewed to ensure that as the condition progresses, care needs are always fully supported.
Quite often, a diagnosis of dementia comes after a period of time during which a loved one hasn’t quite been themselves. This may have been going on for some time, when a partner or family member has provided support and tried to help them to cope. But caring for someone with dementia can be very emotionally draining, time-consuming and tiring – it’s a labour of love that can become overwhelming.
The confusion and challenging behaviour experienced by those with dementia are minimised when they are in familiar surroundings. Our live-in dementia care workers can extend the time that your loved one can stay at home in comfortable, familiar surroundings. They are trained to deal with the anger and frustration that can come with certain types of dementia and have experience in supporting daily tasks, personal hygiene and incontinence issues as such symptoms develop.
Whether you use Unicare Live-in for short-term respite care or for long-term dementia home care, we’ll take the same professional approach to assessing a client’s care needs to live as fulfilling a life as possible in the comfort of their own home. We present a selection of companions based on our clients’ interests, personality and lifestyle, you then choose the most suitable fit. You can keep the same care workers for up to three months at a time before they take a break after which they may then alternate with another care worker, just as suitable as the first.
Many of our representatives and care team members are either Dementia Champions or Dementia Friends. We are aiming for everyone in Unicare Live-in to become Dementia Friends and more to become Dementia Champions, as we fully support this programme to change people’s perceptions about dementia, and create more dementia friendly environments.
Whether a physical disability is temporary or permanent, our live-in care workers help people live life to the fullest, while remaining safely in their own home.

Dementia care is a specialised service designed to support individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. It focuses on managing memory impairment, behavioural changes, and declining cognitive abilities, while ensuring dignity, safety, and comfort at every stage of the condition.
Dementia care benefits individuals who have been formally diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, or related conditions. It is particularly valuable for those experiencing increasing difficulties with memory, communication, judgment, or daily living activities.
Comprehensive dementia care may include:
Assistance with personal care and daily routines
Medication reminders and health monitoring
Cognitive stimulation activities to promote memory and engagement
Behavioural and emotional support
Fall-prevention and mobility assistance
A structured, safe, and familiar environment to reduce anxiety
While personal care addresses basic daily needs such as hygiene and mobility, dementia care also integrates strategies to manage cognitive decline, disorientation, and behavioural changes. It requires staff with specialist training to provide compassionate and patient-centred support.
Safety is ensured through tailored strategies such as secure living spaces to prevent wandering, structured routines to reduce confusion, fall-prevention measures, and continuous observation. Specialised carers are trained to respond calmly and effectively to challenging behaviours.
There is currently no cure for dementia. However, professional care can greatly improve quality of life by managing symptoms, maintaining independence for as long as possible, and providing emotional and practical support for both patients and their families.
Consistency and routine provide a sense of familiarity and security for individuals with dementia. Structured daily activities help reduce agitation, confusion, and stress, while also supporting cognitive function and independence.
Families receive guidance, education, and reassurance through dementia care services. Professional support eases caregiver stress, ensures loved ones are cared for with expertise, and often includes respite care to give families the opportunity to rest and recharge.
Dementia care can be delivered either at home, where individuals remain in familiar surroundings, or within specialised residential facilities designed to provide safe, dementia-friendly environments. The choice depends on the individual’s needs and the family’s preferences.
At Unicare Complex, we provide specialised dementia care delivered by experienced professionals who combine clinical expertise with compassion. Our approach focuses on safety, dignity, and personalised care plans that adapt to each stage of dementia, ensuring individuals and their families feel supported every step of the way.
