Dementia is not one specific disease, but rather a collection of symptoms caused by any number of conditions that affect the brain. People living with dementia can experience changes in their thinking, behaviour and the ability to perform everyday tasks.
The Federal Government subsidises the cost of providing a Home Care Package however they expect individuals to contribute to the cost of your care where individuals can afford to do so.
A diagnosis of dementia is a life changing event for a person as well as their friends and family. Dementia can affect all aspects of a person’s life, but it does not mean you have to stop doing the things you love.
