Occupational Therapy and person-centred support for families living with dementia.
Continuing To Be Me offers flexible person-centred support, occupational therapy, assessment, intervention, and training for people living with dementia, their families, and carers.
We work directly with clients with dementia and families or carers affected by dementia to provide individual assessment and intervention. Our aim is to identify our clients needs and work with them to set achievable goals. Our assessments and interventions usually take place in a person’s own environment.
What is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational Therapy enables people to participate in daily life to improve their health and wellbeing.
Daily life is made up of many occupations, which includes self care (getting ready to go out or eating a meal), being productive (going to work or volunteering) and leisure (socialising with friends or doing hobbies).
How can Occupational Therapists help those affected by dementia?
As Occupational Therapists we can can work with you to overcome the barriers that prevent you from doing what matters to you and support you to live well with dementia. This is the ethos behind Continuing to be Me.
We understand that each person’s journey with dementia is different and each family’s experience is unique.

Use your strengths and abilities to stay active.
Adopt strategies and techniques to continue with daily occupations (activities).
Make changes to make life easier and to live safely in your home.
Access your community, getting to the shops and local facilities.
Continue with valued roles, such as working or caring for others.
Advise family and friends on how to support you to live well with dementia.
