Let's talk about support.

For our final Dementia Action Week post, we'd like to talk about something many carers find surprisingly difficult to give themselves permission to do.

Rest.

Needing a break doesn't mean you aren't coping. It doesn't mean you love the person any less. And asking for help doesn't diminish the care you provide. Caring can be enormously rewarding, but nobody can continually give without opportunities to rest, recharge, and simply be themselves for a while.

This is why respite matters.

At Rosehaven, respite is about supporting both the person receiving care and the person providing it.

It's knowing that your person is being cared for with dignity and compassion while you have an opportunity to rest, attend an appointment, spend time with family and friends, catch up on the things life still requires - or simply have some time to yourself.

And support can begin long before the family reaches breaking point.

The National Dementia Helpline - 1800 100 500 - is free, confidential and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

As Dementia Action Week draws to a close for 2026, we'd like to leave our community with this:

Talk about dementia.
Talk about the person.
Talk about the difficult days.
Talk about the joyful ones.
And please - talk about how the carer is going to.

Neither the person living with dementia nor the person walking beside them should have to navigate the journey alone.

If you'd like to talk to Rosehaven about respite or any dementia support, please call 5775 3161 or drop in and ask for Donna. Our team is ready to help 💛

Today, let's talk about the carer.

Around 1.7 million Australians are involved in the care of someone living with dementia.

Behind that number are husbands and wives. Partners. Sons and daughters. Family members, friends, and carers who quietly adapt their own lives around the changing needs of someone they love.

Caring for someone living with dementia can contain enormous love and deeply meaningful moments. It can also bring exhaustion, worry, interrupted sleep, grief, changing relationships, and a responsibility that doesn't simply finish at the end of the day.

Sometimes, amongst all the questions about the person living with dementia, the person providing the care can become almost invisible.

So today, we'd like our community to ask another question:
"How are YOU going?"

If you know someone caring for a person living with dementia, check in with them. Don't only ask how their loved one is. Offer the cup of tea. Make the phone call. Sit and listen. Offer something practical if you can.

And if YOU ARE the carer, please remember that your wellbeing matters too. You don't have to wait until you are completely exhausted before accepting support.

Caring for the carer is part of caring for the person you care for too. And Rosehaven has the programs and supports to take care of you both.

If you or someone you know would like more information about carer supports available, please reach out to Donna or Neet at Rosehaven Hospice on 5775 3161.

Let's talk about joy.

When we talk about dementia, it's easy for the conversation to focus on what has been lost.

But that's not the whole story.

There can certainly be incredibly difficult days on the journey. But amongst those days there can still be humour, music, affection, companionship - and wonderfully ordinary moments of joy.

A shared joke. A favourite tune. A funny facial expression. A familiar story - even if we've heard it many times before. Or one of those completely unexpected moments when everyone simply laughs.

These moments matter.

Life doesn't stop after a diagnosis - and neither does joy. Relationships, experiences, and meaningful moments continue. The way people connect may change, but love, humour, and companionship can still be very much present.

At Rosehaven, quality of life matters. Care isn't only about what needs to be done for someone. It's also about creating opportunities for people to feel safe, comfortable, valued, and importantly, themselves.

So perhaps today, instead of only asking "What does this person need?" we could also ask "What might make them smile?"

Sometimes, laughter really is a form of care. Like they say...the best medicine.

If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out to Donna at Rosehaven Hospice on 5775 3161.

Let's talk about connection.

When words become harder to find, connection doesn't have to disappear.

Dementia can change the way a person communicates.

Words may become tangled or difficult to find. Questions might be repeated. A person may become frustrated or withdrawn. Sometimes what they're trying to tell us comes through their expression, their body language or their behaviour rather than their words.

In those moments, we can help by slowing down. Give them time. Listen without rushing to correct. Notice their expression and body language. Think about the feeling or need behind what you're seeing.

Dementia Australia reminds us that we don't need the perfect words to talk about dementia. What matters is starting the conversation, being curious and making time to connect.

At Rosehaven, we know meaningful communication doesn't always require a lot of words.

Sometimes it's quietly sitting beside someone. A familiar song. A reassuring touch. A smile across the room. Or simply knowing someone is there.

Communication may change. Our willingness to connect shouldn't.

If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out to Donna at Rosehaven Hospice on 5775 3161.

This week is Dementia Action Week, and Rosehaven is joining the conversation.

For the next five days, we will be sharing some thoughts about dementia, the people who love and care for people living with dementia, and the importance of understanding, connection and support.

Why does dementia matter to us?

Because behind every diagnosis is a person. A person with history, relationships, preferences, humour, fears, strengths, and a life that continues to have meaning.

Dementia can change memory, communication, behaviour, and the way someone experiences the world. But it does not erase who they are.

Feelings matter.
Relationships matter.
Dignity matters.
Their life still matters.

Dementia Australia reminds us to see the person, not the diagnosis. Dementia is a part of someone's life, but it does not define who they are.

At Rosehaven, this is something we believe deeply. That is why this Dementia Action Week, we are adding our voice to the conversation. Because greater understanding starts when we're willing to talk.

It's time to talk about dementia.

If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out by phoning Donna on 5775 3161.
