What is Alzheimer’s disease?
Alzheimer’s disease is a physical disease that affects the brain. Nerve cells are disrupted by ‘plaques’ and ‘tangles’ that develop inside the brain. For people with Alzheimer’s, communication between nerve cells changes and messages don’t travel around as well as they should. Eventually certain brain cells start to die.
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive condition, so symptoms develop over several years. The most common symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease include confusion, problems with speech, personality changes and difficulty making decisions.
Supporting Clients in Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green to live well with Alzheimer’s disease
Although there is currently no cure for dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, there is ongoing research into medical and drug treatments. Read more about the research being undertaken by one of our charity partner: Alzheimer’s Society.
At Right at Home Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green, we offer quality care and support to help Clients to live well with Alzheimer’s and dementia. All of our Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green-based CareGivers complete dementia-specific training as part of their induction programme. As a result, our specialist CareGivers are confident in developing personalised care plans to manage the symptoms of Alzheimer’s and even slow the progression of the disease.
Alzheimer’s usually starts with memory loss, as well as losing the ability to find the right words, solve problems or make decisions. As the disease progresses, people with Alzheimer’s disease will need some level of care during their day to day lives. Over time, memory loss, communication skills and orientation will get worse. The required level of care at home may start at just one hour a day, for reassurance. Alzheimer’s care plans may eventually progress into 24-hour care as the disease deteriorates.
Contact our team in Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green to discuss your unique circumstances.
Why is Alzheimer’s disease care important?
Alzheimer’s disease can impact a person’s mood, daily activities and hobbies. Dementia and Alzheimer’s can have a profound impact on everyday life, making small tasks increasingly challenging. As Alzheimer’s disease progresses, sufferers may start to forget appointments or lose important items, like their keys or wallet. It’s important to keep an eye on any signals that the condition may be getting worse.
Alzheimer’s can cause difficulties not only for the person who has dementia but also those close to them. If you recognise that a family member has developed symptoms or is finding tasks are becoming more challenging, encourage them to consult their GP.

FAQs about our Alzheimer’s homecare in Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green
What is the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's?
In short, Alzheimer’s is a singular type of dementia.
Dementia is not a singular condition itself, but rather a term used to describe a group of associated symptoms. These conditions include memory loss and difficulty with concentration.
Whereas Alzheimer’s disease is a specific medical condition that disrupts the brain’s nerve endings and how they communicate with one another.
There are many stages of dementia with different symptoms associated with each. People with Alzheimer’s will also experience various stages of the progressive disease.
At Right at Home Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green, we offer a range of support services for people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. Please contact us to find out more about Alzheimer’s homecare.
How long does each stage of Alzheimer's last?
There is no definitive time frame for how long it will take to progress between each stage of Alzheimer’s disease. The rate of progression depends on the individual and their own medical situation.
However, as Alzheimer’s is fairly common, there is an average for how long we can expect for each stage:
|
Stage of Alzheimer's |
Average Length of Time |
|
Early Stage (Mild) |
2 - 4 Years |
|
Middle Stage (Moderate) |
2 - 10 Years |
|
Late Stage (Severe) |
1 - 3 Years |
If you are unsure what to expect for each stage of Alzheimer’s, talk to your GP or a healthcare professional for advice.

The cost of our in-home Alzheimer's care will vary based on the individual needs of the Client. All of our Camden, Hampstead and Golders Green-based homecare services are tailored to your needs, so we can’t provide an average cost until we have discussed your care plan.

Claire G | Daughter of Client"Right at Home provide an excellent level of care for my 94-year-old mum who has Alzheimer's. My mum, although somewhat hesitant at first at having strangers in the house, quickly bonded with them and she now looks forward to their visits. The ladies are all very happy to help with any cleaning, laundry etc., or just provide companionship, and mum was recently taken out to a local beauty spot to feed the ducks. I feel that mum is benefiting greatly from the visits as she feels less on her own when I can't be there. Everyone I have dealt with has been very helpful from the Care Manager, Carers and the Accounts department. I would not hesitate to recommend Right at Home to anyone."
