Thinking of becoming a carer?

We had a wonderfully interesting day yesterday with Penny Garner, Founder of the Contented Dementia Trust.

Penny visited us to teach us about the SPECAL method of dementia support, that she developed. SPECAL (Specialised Early Care for Alzheimer’s) is a means of working with people with dementia. It minimises stress for people living with dementia and helps them live as content a life as possible.

CuraCare Founder Adrian Mullins had used the techniques of the SPECAL method with his own grandmother and found that it really helped. It’s something that, as an organisation, CuraCare is committed to implementing for working with clients with dementia.

We’d like to thank Penny for her time and help yesterday and we look forward to using her SPECAL method to help the lives of those we work with that live with dementia.
