Enlisting the help of an at-home carer has been proven to have a lot of benefits. It enables you to remain in the comfort of your own home. 
 
Whether you live alone or with your family or friends, home help allows you to be safe and comfortable in your own surroundings. For elderly individuals that suffer from dementia, this is especially important and beneficial to their wellbeing.
