Specialist Care


'When you care about the elderly you will do everything possible to do the best by them. ' 


The moment you decide to treat them the way you would expect to be treated, that's the point at which care becomes beautiful and a true connection is made between client and carer.'  

When you care bout the elderly, you will  do your best by them.  


The moment you decide to treat the elderly in the way you would expect to be treated, that is the point at which care becomes beautiful and a special bond is formed between the client and the carer.  That is what we aim to achieve here at  Care Carriacou.


Alzheimer’s is increasingly prevelant on the island.  You need Carers with experience in this field.


As an ageing population, we have an increasing number of people being diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimers every year.  It is not an easy time for families and you need people around you who can support you.  Sometimes, depending on the stage, famiies need respite.  We can help with this.  


We understand that each person living with Alzheimer’s has their own individual experiences and symptoms. Our Care Ambassadors  offer care, helping your loved ones stay happy at home with everything from companionship to live-in care solutions.  


We know there may be games you enjoy, that you remember - we will explore these with you as we get to know you better.  Don't worry.  We are here for you.  We will ensure that your journey through this very challanging time is as pleasant as possible.


As the old people say " Not so you born, so you come".





There will be things you can remember...

Dementia is becoming ever more prevalent in older people on the island as we start to live longer.   Did you know that Dementia has many sub-categories under it's umbrella? We are getting more adept in recognising the signs and achieving an early diagnosis.  You have to be honest with yourself and see a doctor if you spot the signs.  With or without a diagnosis, people still need help retaining as much independence as possible. Early support can help families establish care as part of a daily routine, helping those with memory loss to remain independent.  There is always something you do remember.  It's our job to explore what you can do to keep you feeling useful.  At Care Carriacou we know how challenging it is caring for someone with dementia, but our staff will provide effective, compassionate and dignified dementia care in your home. Our relationship-centred approach provides personalised care that:




  • Helps your loved ones remain safe and calm at home
  • Builds confidence and encourages engagement
  • Provides nutritious meals and activities to encourage healthy eating
  • Creates opportunities for social interaction
  • Provides mind-stimulating activities
  • Builds self-esteem and enhances physical strength
  • Manages and soothes challenging behaviours
  • Helps families take a rest from caring.


" Patience is what is required.  Patience, empathy and a good heart.  Nothing less will do."
