How we can help
Is it safe for my loved one to stay at home with dementia?
Yes. Remaining in a familiar environment is often the best way to manage anxiety and confusion. We offer scalable support, from a few hours of respite to 24/7 supervision, ensuring your loved one is never alone or at risk. As their needs progress, we adapt the level of care to keep them safe and comfortable at home.
Are your caregivers trained in dementia care?
Yes. Our caregivers receive specialised training in dementia care. They are equipped with practical strategies to handle behavioural changes, communication difficulties, and safety concerns (such as wandering) with skill and dignity. This ensures they can manage challenges confidently without causing distress.
How do you handle aggressive or confused behaviour?
We view behaviour as a form of communication. Our caregivers are trained to identify the underlying triggers, such as pain, hunger, or frustration, rather than just reacting to the symptom. We use gentle redirection and validation techniques to restore calm and resolve the situation without conflict.
Will we have the same caregiver every time?
Yes. Consistency is critical for someone living with dementia, since a familiar face builds trust and reduces confusion. Instead of a revolving door of staff, we build a small, dedicated team who your loved one will always recognise and feel comfortable with.

Nurse next door has had a dramatic impact on my life. The staff are caring, kind and always ready to help. Over the last few months this has enabled me to work at improving my health situation with the support of Nurse Next Door. It is wonderful to know that they are always available to help. I would recommend Nurse Next Door to anyone who needs support with their situation.

Not sure who recommended Nurse Next Door could have been MCCS who was our package provider at the time. We’ve since changed to Trilogy and I self manage Peters Package. I now have respite for 22 hours per month and we have a wonderful male person who looks after my husband while I sew in 2 groups and the last respite on the third Friday of every month I shop or meet someone for a coffee! This service and the male carer have been amazing so caring with Peter nothing is a bother and it means I can relax and unwind away from my job as a carer.The company have been wonderful organising hours days etc . Trilogy have been excellent as well and I’m not doing anymore than I was doing with the previous provider which was costing me 25% more in Admin costs!! A big Thankyou to everyone concerned .🙏🤗👏🦋💐
