Staying at Home

Staying at Home is a free carer wellbeing and dementia respite program designed to empower and upskill carers to support a person living with dementia to remain at home for as long as possible.

With a strong focus on wellbeing and self-care, carers will be equipped to navigate the complexities and challenges of supporting a person living with dementia. As part of the program, the person living with dementia is offered an introduction to dementia respite and receives tailored, individual support to continue meaningful and enjoyable activities for longer. Staying at Home is offered in the following ways: 

  • Two-night retreat for carers and people living with dementia

  • Relaxed, resort-style setting with meals and accommodation provided

  • Focus on respite, peer connection and practical dementia care strategies

This immersive program provides carers with expert guidance on managing dementia-related changes while prioritising their own wellbeing. The small, supportive environment allows carers to share experiences, build confidence and access respite whilst learning how to help their loved one stay at home longer.
