Types of dementia
Getting a diagnosis of the specific type of dementia you have will mean you can get the right support to help you live better with the condition.
If you care for someone with dementia or are living with the diagnosis yourself, you can book an appointment with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse in our virtual clinics.
Appointments are free, confidential, and take place by phone or video call. Appointments last 45 minutes and are available:
- Monday to Wednesday from 10am until 7pm
- Thursday to Saturday from 10am until 4pm
Please note that we do not offer phone appointments after 5pm: only video appointments are available during evening time slots.

If you’d prefer to speak to an Admiral Nurse now rather than booking an appointment, you can call us for free on 0800 888 6678 (Monday-Friday 9am-9pm; Saturday, Sunday and bank holidays 9am-5pm, except 25th December).
As experts in dementia, our nurses offer life-changing advice and support with all aspects of dementia, including:
- Support around diagnosis
- Symptoms and changes in behaviour
- Emotional support
- Stays in hospital
- Employment and dementia
We often experience high levels of demand, with appointments booked two to three weeks in advance.

If you are booking an appointment on behalf of a carer or a person living with dementia, please make sure they are happy for you to share their details, or, if they are not able to make the decision themselves, that you’re doing what’s right for them. Accepting our terms and conditions confirms you understand this.
