Dementia Care in Mildenhall

Familiar faces, gentle routines, calm homes

Dementia changes how someone experiences their home, their family, time itself. Our Mildenhall dementia carers are trained in person-centred dementia care — gentle redirection, validation therapy, sundowning support, and creating the calm routines that ease symptoms.

Common questions from Mildenhall families

Do you work with the Suffolk memory clinic?

Yes — we communicate with consultants, community psychiatric nurses (CPNs) and the Admiral Nurse service whenever the family asks us to.

Can you handle the wandering?

Yes. Our risk assessment covers door alarms, GPS trackers if appropriate, and gentle redirection techniques. We do not use restraint.

Will it be the same carer each visit?

Wherever possible, yes. Continuity is critical with dementia. We rotate two trained carers as primary so there is always familiarity, even when one is on holiday.

My parent forgets the carer is coming — will they let them in?

We agree a routine entry process at the start. Some families use a key safe; others have the carer phone first. The dementia-trained team is good at the gentle approach to first introductions.
