Dementia and Alzheimer's care in Battaramulla, Colombo — unhurried days that keep the same gentle shape, a secure garden to wander safely, familiar caregivers, and a psychologist who knows your parent by name.
The same question five times in an hour, and you've learned to answer each time like it's the first — but it's wearing everyone down.
She went out "to the shop" and a neighbour brought her home. Now someone has to watch the door, all day, every day.
Afternoons are fine, but as the light fades he becomes restless, confused, sometimes angry — and nights have become the hardest part.
Meals, activities and rest at the same times with the same faces — the predictability that calms an anxious mind.
A secure home and enclosed garden — your parent can walk freely without anyone fearing the front door.
Card games, carrom, memory exercises, music, conversation and garden time — gentle daily engagement that may support cognitive wellbeing. Residents join what they enjoy; nothing is ever forced.
We assess honestly before any admission — that's what the pre-admission care planning is for. Our psychologist and doctors meet your parent first, and we tell you plainly whether we're the right fit for their stage. Families should always consult their own medical professionals too; we'll gladly speak with them directly.
A caregiver is awake and on duty every night, with the on-call doctor a phone call away. Night-time wandering and sundowning are things our team handles routinely — gently, without restraint, without drama.
"Thank you for the loving, dedicated and compassionate care you provide my husband. It gives so much comfort to our family that he is safe and happy. We appreciate that looking after dementia involves a lot of patience and compassion and we are ever grateful."
Whatever stage your parent is at, the conversation is free and the answer will be honest.
