 Are your preparing for, or currently going through cancer treatment?
We can help improve your cancer journey.  The Royal British Legion Admiral Nurse service offers specialist support and advice to families caring for people living with dementia. The service aims to help family carers gain the skills needed to assist with their loved one’s care and promotes a positive approach to living well with dementia. As registered nurses specialising in dementia, Admiral Nurses help carers improve their quality of life, which in turn improves the life of the person they’re caring for, and the wider family too.
