At Livewell Estates, we understand that dementia is a progressive condition that impacts not just the person living with it, but their entire family. Navigating the complexities of dementia can be overwhelming, and that’s why we are here to offer dementia support at every stage of the care journey. Our approach is rooted in our pioneering “Three I’s” philosophy: Impairment, Inclusion, and Improvement, which guide us in providing holistic, personalised care to every individual and family that walks through our doors.
Comprehensive dementia support for every step of the journey
Dementia doesn’t follow a linear path, and as it progresses, the needs of the individual and their family evolve. At Livewell, we recognise these challenges and are dedicated to supporting families at every stage of the care journey, from diagnosis through to end-of-life care.
Personalised care plans and assessments
From the moment you reach out to Livewell, we begin by assessing the unique needs of your loved one. Our healthcare team works with you to develop a personalised care plan that adapts over time. This includes regular assessments to ensure that care continues to meet the changing needs of the individual. Our goal is to provide the best possible care tailored to the specific stages of dementia, offering comfort, peace of mind, and support for families.
Medical support from experts
One of the key pillars of dementia support at Livewell is our team of medical professionals who specialise in dementia care. Our multidisciplinary team includes geriatricians, physicians, psychologists, and other healthcare experts who ensure that each resident receives the medical care they need to manage their condition. By integrating medical expertise with the personalised care plan, we make sure your loved one’s health needs are met, while also addressing any behavioural or emotional changes they may experience.
Activities to engage and stimulate
Keeping the mind and body active is a crucial part of dementia care. Livewell provides a stimulating activities program designed to engage residents at every stage of their condition. Activities are tailored to each person’s abilities and interests, helping them stay active, socially engaged, and mentally stimulated. This approach not only benefits the individual with dementia but also promotes a sense of well-being and purpose, which is important for their overall quality of life.
Creating a safe, inclusive environment
Our philosophy of Inclusion ensures that we create an environment where all residents, regardless of their condition’s progression, feel valued and included. Livewell Estates offers secure, dementia-friendly spaces that allow residents to move around freely and safely, and we ensure that their families remain involved in their care. Whether through shared activities, family gatherings, or simply a conversation with our team, we foster a strong sense of community that supports both the individual and their loved ones.
Ongoing dementia support for families
We believe that dementia care is not just about the individual, but about the family too. At Livewell, we offer ongoing emotional and practical support to families throughout the care journey. Our care managers and trained staff members are always available to discuss your concerns, update you on your loved one’s progress, and offer advice on how to manage the emotional challenges that come with dementia. We also host dementia support groups where families can connect with others going through similar experiences, offering comfort and shared wisdom.
Improvement through continuous care
In keeping with the Improvement aspect of our approach, Livewell is committed to helping residents with dementia achieve the highest quality of life possible. This means continuously monitoring and adjusting care to improve both mental and physical health. Whether through medication management, physiotherapy, or specialised occupational therapy, we are always striving to improve our residents’ well-being.
End-of-life care with dignity
At Livewell, we also understand that the end-of-life stage requires special attention. Our compassionate team is dedicated to providing sensitive, dignified care for residents as they reach the final stages of their journey. Our goal is to ensure that the individual and their family are supported every step of the way, with a focus on comfort, emotional support, and respect.
