Often experienced by elderly people, Dementia is not always diagnosed straight away, which can leave sufferers feeling isolated and not getting the care and support services they need.

It can be very difficult for you and your family to deal with Alzheimer's and other different forms of Dementia, whether you can only notice mild symptoms, or are experiencing a later stage of the illness. At Sova Healthcare, we are aware of how challenging such a time in your life can be, and want to support you with the best individual and personalised care. The illness affects everyone in different ways, which is why it is crucial to us that every single one of our clients receives the Dementia Care and Support that best suits their unique needs.
