This week, we are proud to be supporting Dementia Action Week 💙
At Ridgegate Home, dementia care is not simply part of what we do - it is something incredibly close to the hearts of our entire team, our residents, and all those who love them.
Every single day, we are humbled and honoured to support individuals who have lived rich, meaningful and extraordinary lives before us. Behind every diagnosis is a person with memories, achievements, humour, relationships, passions and stories that deserve to be known, celebrated and respected.
Person-centred care is at the heart of everything we do. We do not see “a dementia resident” - we see the individual. Their condition does not define them.
There are currently estimated to be around 1 million people living with dementia in the UK, with numbers expected to continue rising in the years ahead. For so many families, dementia has touched their lives in one way or another.
That is why awareness, compassion, understanding and support matter so deeply.
This Dementia Action Week, we encourage everyone to support the incredible work of Alzheimer's Society - whether that is through fundraising, sharing awareness, learning more about dementia, or simply taking the time to better understand those living with the condition.
Together, we can continue to create a world where people living with dementia feel valued, understood, respected and never alone. 💙
