If you care for someone with dementia or are living with the diagnosis yourself, you can book an appointment with a specialist dementia nurse in our virtual clinics.
Appointments are free, confidential, and available Monday to Saturday from 10am to 4pm, and on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings from 5pm to 7pm. Each appointment lasts 45 minutes and can take place by phone or video call, to suit you. Evening appointments are only bookable as online appointments.
If you’d prefer to phone a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse right now, you can call us for free on 0800 888 6678.
As experts in dementia, our nurses offer life-changing advice and support with all aspects of dementia, including:
- understanding the diagnosis
- practical tips for caring for a loved one with dementia
- understanding symptoms and changes in behaviour
- advice on stays in hospital and transition into a nursing or residential home
- emotional support for you
We often experience high levels of demand, with appointments booked two to three weeks in advance.
