Dementia care is the most delicate work we do, and the work I am most particular about staffing. A person living with Alzheimer's or another dementia does not need someone efficient — they need someone calm, endlessly patient, and trained to step into their reality rather than argue with it. In twelve years I have learned that the environment does half the work: familiar rooms, the same caregiver faces, the same rhythm every day. Home care, done properly, supports exactly what a person with memory loss relies on most — familiarity. We cannot change the course of the condition, and we will never claim to; what we can do is make every day safer, calmer and more dignified.
What's Included
Structured Daily Routine
The same caregivers, the same order of the day — meals, washing, rest, activity — because predictability lowers anxiety more than any other single thing.
Safety & Wandering Prevention
A home safety review on the first visit, discreet supervision, and practical adjustments that reduce wandering risk without making home feel like a ward.
Personal Care with Patience
Bathing, dressing and meals handled without rushing or confrontation, using redirection techniques rather than force of will.
Family Respite & Updates
Scheduled relief for family carers — burnout helps no one — plus honest, regular updates and a log the treating doctor can review.
Behaviour Changes, Sundowning and Honest Limits
Late-afternoon agitation, repeated questions, suspicion, refusal of care — these are normal features of the condition, and our caregivers are trained in non-confrontational responses: redirection, validation, music, routine. What we never do is restrain, argue or medicate on our own initiative. Behaviour changes are documented and reported to the treating doctor, because they sometimes signal something treatable — pain, infection, medication side effects.
Most families start with daytime visits and grow the schedule as the condition progresses; many eventually move to a live-in arrangement with a two-caregiver rotation. In earlier stages, companion care may be all that is needed — company, walks and gentle structure. A safe home matters enormously at every stage: our home safety checklist is the right starting point.
How We Start
A quiet conversation first
Tell us on WhatsApp what is happening — diagnosis if there is one, behaviours you are seeing, what the family needs. Everything stays confidential.
Assessment at home
A senior nurse visits, meets your loved one without pressure, reviews the home for safety and speaks with the family about routine and preferences.
Plan agreed with the doctor
Care tasks, routine, escalation signs and medication support are written down and aligned with the treating doctor's instructions.
Gentle start, consistent faces
We begin with shorter visits so trust can form, then extend. The team stays deliberately small — familiarity is the treatment plan.
Pricing
Dementia care visits start from IDR 350,000 (up to two hours); 12-hour day shifts from IDR 650,000 reflecting the higher staffing requirements; live-in dementia care from IDR 16,000,000 per month with a two-caregiver rotation recommended. Full details on the pricing page.
