Arranging dementia care at home in North Somerset

Dementia care at home is support from care workers who understand how dementia can affect memory, mood, communication and daily life. It can be a few visits a day, overnight care, or a live-in carer, depending on what your parent needs.

When you use our free matching, we look for an agency registered with the Care Quality Commission that covers your postcode in North Somerset, offers dementia care at home and has told us it can take on new clients. That agency, and only that agency, calls you to talk it through, usually before arranging an assessment.

No ring-round. No chasing. No being told “sorry, we’re full”.

Before your details go anywhere, we check the agency is right for you in North Somerset. We only send them to one agency that ticks every box.

Help with paying in North Somerset

The council for North Somerset can assess care needs for anyone who asks, and then look at finances. In England, if savings are over £23,250 you will usually pay for your own care; below £14,250 the council may meet more of the cost, subject to income.

If you need care to stay living at home, the council’s financial assessment does not include the value of the home you live in.
