What is a Admiral Nurse?
We are Registered Nurses who have specialist knowledge of dementia care.
Who provide support to family carers and people living with dementia throughout the experience of dementia, particularly during times when things are particularly intense and or more difficult
If you are caring for someone with dementia you may find it impacting on your own life and health.
Admiral nurses can sometimes help you with support and guidance in coping with these emotions, stresses and practical problems.
