Dementia Care
We stay at the forefront of dementia home care. Our support is continuously updated to reflect
best practices in dementia care.
Understanding dementia
Dementia is a general term for changes in memory, thinking, and behavior that affect daily life, communication, and how a person interacts with the world. Alzheimer’s is the most common type, along with vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia.
Dementia-trained caregivers, matched to your home
Our caregivers have experience supporting people living with dementia and receive dementia-specific training to better understand behavior, communication, and daily functioning.
- Communicate calmly and respectfully
- Provide personal care with patience and sensitivity
- Collaborate with family and care team for personalized care
- Redirect and de-escalate compassionately
- Encourage participation at the client’s pace
- Encourage healthy living and well-being

Safe and Dignified Daily Living Period
Expert support with essentials like bathing and grooming, plus proactive home safety
Cognitive and Social Stimulation
We keep identity at the center through research-based Life Story Work and reminiscence activities that help your loved one stay connected.
Sensory and Emotional Support
Gentle, non-clinical interventions that ease anxiety or agitation, including music and calming sensory routines tailored to the individual.
Life story work is proven to support communication and connection in dementia care (Subramaniam et al., 2023)
Helps caregivers move beyond routines to meaningful interaction
Encourages respect, dignity, and emotional comfort every day
Life story work is a person-centred approach where an individual’s memories, experiences, and personal history are collected into a Life Story Book or memory record. This can include photos, stories, hobbies, and family details. It helps caregivers and families understand the person better, support meaningful conversations, and provide personalized, compassionate care.
Expert Care with Life Story Support
At Affinity Home Care, we integrate life story work into our care approach to ensure that every client receives support that honours their past, enhances their present well‑being, and fosters deeper connection with caregivers and loved ones.
