Dementia and Cognitive
Impairment Care
Specialist Dementia Support
Our dementia care approach is grounded in person-centred models including the work of Professor Tom Kitwood and the VIPS framework (Valuing people, Individual approaches, Perspective of the person, Social environment). We provide:
- Support with all activities of daily living (ADLs) adapted to cognitive abilities
- Use of validation therapy and reminiscence approaches to reduce distress
- Management of responsive behaviors (previously termed ‘challenging behaviors’) using de-escalation techniques
- Environmental adaptations to reduce confusion and promote orientation
- Structured routines that provide reassurance and familiarity
- Meaningful engagement and cognitive stimulation
- Support for families through what can be a difficult journey
Our carers receive specialist dementia training including understanding different types of dementia (Alzheimer’s, vascular, Lewy body, frontotemporal), recognizing pain in individuals who cannot communicate verbally, and supporting nutritional intake when eating patterns change.
Your Care, Your Culture, Your Choice.
Let’s create a care plan that respects your needs and beliefs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Right Choice Home Care different from other providers?
Two things set us apart: genuine cultural sensitivity and uncompromising quality. We have built our entire model around culturally appropriate care. We hire from the communities we serve. We provide extensive cultural competency training. We match clients with carers based on language, background, and understanding—not just who’s available. At the same time, we never compromise on clinical quality. Every carer meets rigorous standards for training,background checks, and ongoing supervision. You shouldn’t have to choose between feeling understood and receiving excellent healthcare. With us, you get both.
Do you provide live-in care services?
Yes, absolutely. Live-in care means a carer stays in your home round the clock, providing continuous support whilst you remain in the comfort of your own space. This works well for people who need frequent assistance throughout the day and night but want to avoid moving to a facility. Our live-in carers are experienced professionals who understand how to provide attentive care whilst also respecting your privacy and household routines. We carefully match personalities and cultural backgrounds to make sure the arrangement feels comfortable for everyone involved.
Can I choose a carer who speaks my language?
That’s not just possible, it’s a priority for us. We maintain a diverse team specifically so we can match clients with carers who speak their language fluently. When you call us, tell us which language you prefer and any other cultural considerations that matter to you. We’ll do our best to match you with someone who meets those needs. If your language is uncommon in our area, we’ll be honest about what we can provide and work with you to find the best solution.
How do you ensure the safety and quality of your services?
Quality and safety are built into every layer of what we do. First, every carer undergoes thorough background screening before we hire them. Then comes comprehensive training in both clinical skills and cultural sensitivity. Once they’re working with clients, registered healthcare professionals supervise their work, review care plans regularly, and conduct quality checks. We maintain detailed documentation so we can track any changes in your condition and respond quickly. We also encourage direct feedback from families. If something concerns you, we want to know immediately so we can address it. Our reputation depends on delivering consistently excellent care, so we take quality control seriously.
What areas do you currently cover?
We’re based in South East London, with our primary service areas in Bexleyheath, Bromley, and Greenwich. These are the communities we know best and where we’ve built the strongest relationships with local families, faith groups, and cultural organisations. That said, we also provide care across other London boroughs. If you’re elsewhere in London and wondering whether we can help, please give us a call. We’ll let you know straight away whether we can serve your area, and if we can’t, we’ll do our best to point you towards a provider who can.
