Specialist dementia care

The Specialist Dementia Care Program is for people with severe symptoms of dementia. These may be behavioural or psychological. This program can support people to transition to mainstream aged care residences.

Program Overview

The program is personalised to improve quality of life of people living with severe dementia. It aims to help reduce or stabilise the person's symptoms so that they can transition back to a less intensive setting.
