At The Forrest Centre, we understand the complex and changing needs of people with dementia and provide specialised support.

We focus on meeting each person in our care with compassion and respect, and tailor their care to meet their unique wellbeing needs.

If you or someone you care for has been diagnosed with dementia, you may wish to consider at-home care to maintain a familiar environment. Forrest Community Services can provide a range of supports to help with daily tasks such as personal care, cleaning and washing, and home maintenance, as well as one-on-one support, respite care, and activities to help live as normal and full a life as possible.

If you or your family feel that you would be better supported in residential care, we have dedicated dementia care facilities at both the Mary Potter Nursing Home and Loreto Home of Compassion. Drawing on evidence-based research, our highly skilled team provides best practice dementia care while also promoting social wellbeing and living well with full-time support.

We also help our residents and their families to understand the different stages of dementia and provide insights into how best to maintain quality of life. 

Our Pastoral Care team is always on hand to assist you through your family’s dementia journey with compassion and respect.
