Admiral nursing services

We offer specialist dementia nursing support to family carers with multiple and complex care needs both emotionally and practically, using a range of therapeutically evidenced interventions. The service works closely with Dementia UK.

The service works with carers in identifying areas of difficultly they are having in their carer role, and helping them to manage this effectively.

Interventions we provide include, psychological interventions, short-term solution focused therapy, behavioural family therapy or longer term bereavement/loss counselling.

The service runs a 5 week ‘Caring in Dementia Group’ which provides information, advise and support about caring for a person with dementia.  The group offers the chance to meet with and share experiences with other carers.

Referrals are normally via the local community mental health teams, drop-in clinics or via outpatient appointments.
