      A dementia diagnosis is complicated

      At HammondCare, we do complicated.

      Our highly-regarded specialist psychiatrists and trained, compassionate carers can support you - at home or in one of our innovative, carefully designed, small household residences - to handle whatever comes, in a way that works for you and your loved ones.

      It's not just care, it's HammondCare.
