Working together: outstanding care and support for older people and their carers

A booklet that relates the personal experiences of being a carer of, or as a person living with dementia.

Arising from conversations with a number of carers and people living with dementia, this document aims to capture the uniqueness of each journey, while exploring the shared experience. This cohesive set of personal stories comes together as a balanced narrative that explores the good, the bad and the brilliant along the way. It should be read by all people touched by dementia, and even those who are not.

Resthaven’s Whistleblower Policy, and the protections it provides us, support us all to act with integrity, even when it feels very tough to do so.

This booklet is for the family and friends of a Carer: to help you support someone you know who is caring for someone else.

Many Carers say that they sometimes experience a sense of isolation – that those around them, family and friends, can’t quite ‘get’ what it is that the Carer is going through. Carers we have spoken with said that they wished there was some information available to their family and friends that would help them understand and better support the Carer. Here you will find information and practical ideas to support a Carer in their important role.
