Home › Our Services › Dementia Care at Home
Staying at home, with familiar routines, faces and surroundings, is one of the most powerful things you can do for someone living with dementia. Our small, consistent teams make that possible — from an hour a day to round-the-clock support.

Days, nights & live-in
Eidyn Care provides specialist dementia care at home across Edinburgh, Fife, Kinross and Perth. A small, consistent team of SSSC-registered carers supports familiar routines at home — from one-hour visits to overnight, 24-hour and live-in care. Family-run since 2017 and a top 20 UK home care provider five years running.
What’s included
Every package is built around a personal plan agreed with you and your family — flexible visits from one hour through to full 24/7 support, delivered by a small, consistent team of SSSC-registered carers.
Consistent, familiar carers — the same small team, so faces and routines stay recognisable — vital for reducing anxiety and confusion
Routine-led support — meals, medication prompts, personal care and daily structure built around the life your loved one has always led
Meaningful engagement — conversation, music, photographs, walks and activities that connect to who the person is
Safety at home — gentle supervision, risk awareness, and prompt communication with family when anything changes
Support for the family — regular updates, honest advice, and respite so family carers can rest
Day and night cover — evening settles, waking nights, sleepovers and full 24/7 live-in care as needs progress
Who it’s for
Families usually come to us at one of two points: early on, when a diagnosis is new and a little structure and companionship keeps someone independent — or later, when confusion, wandering risk or carer exhaustion means the current arrangement isn’t safe or sustainable any more.
In both cases the goal is the same: keep the person at home, safe and settled, for as long as that is the right place to be. Care at home consistently works better for people with dementia than an unfamiliar setting, because memory relies on familiarity — the same kitchen, the same chair, the same view from the window.
Our carers are trained to work with the person, not just the diagnosis: to slow down, to reassure rather than correct, and to spot the small changes that matter. As needs progress, the same team can step up from daily visits to overnight, 24-hour and live-in care — so nothing familiar has to change.

How it works
Speak to our care team — no obligation, no pressure. We’ll listen and answer your questions honestly.
We visit at home, meet the family, and build a personal plan around routines, preferences and outcomes.
You meet your carers before care starts. We review the plan regularly and adjust as needs change.
Yes — consistency is the foundation of good dementia care, so we deliberately keep teams small. You’ll meet your carers before care begins, and we avoid a revolving door of new faces.
The care plan grows with the person. Many families start with a daily visit and step up gradually to multiple visits, overnight support, and eventually 24-hour or live-in care — with the same familiar team throughout.
Often, yes. We start slowly — sometimes just companionship — and build trust before introducing personal care. Our carers are trained to reassure rather than confront, and we’ll be honest with you about what’s working.
It can be. Free Personal Care applies in Scotland regardless of age for those assessed as needing it, and Self-Directed Support lets you choose your own provider. We’ll explain the options — see our costs and funding guide.
Yes. We provide waking nights, sleepover support and full 24-hour live-in dementia care across Edinburgh, Fife, Kinross and Perth.
