Can people with dementia still live a 'normal' life? The answer is… yes. Here’s how. This clip features a family carer, a Home Instead Registered Care Manager, and a Clinical Psychologist discussing how to achieve a fulfilling life after a diagnosis.

The key takeaways for our local community are:
● Relationship is Key: Skilful, patient care is essential, especially when a loved one resists help.
● Encourage Joy: Ask them, "What do I enjoy, and how can I do more of that?"
● Build a Network: Strong support and adapting the home environment make all the difference to independence.
At Home Instead Basildon, we provide, personalised care that focuses on nurturing relationships and supporting the life your loved one already enjoys in the comfort and familiarity of home.
