Specialist dementia care, close to home.

Logan is one of Queensland's most culturally diverse cities, from Springwood, Daisy Hill and Shailer Park to Woodridge, Kingston and Browns Plains, and out to the acreage and new estates around Park Ridge, Jimboomba and Yarrabilba. Families here look after each other, often across generations under one roof, and we work with that. Our dementia trained team supports people at home and in the community, and we have Supported Independent Living homes in Logan, purpose built and set up for dementia and Huntington's disease. Our Registered Nurse led community nursing team works here too. If a stay at Logan Hospital means someone cannot go home yet, we source a medium term home in 5 to 7 days and stay with the family through every step.

When someone cannot go home yet, we source a Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) home in 5 to 7 days for every referral, from hospital or the community. Stays last up to 90 days, staffed 1:1 or 2:1, while we gather the evidence for the right long term plan.

Hospital to Home

Hospital to home in Logan

We work closely with the teams at Logan Hospital. When a patient living with dementia or cognitive decline is medically ready to leave but has nowhere safe to go, we meet them on the ward, not at the front door. We attend discharge meetings at no charge, source a medium term home in 5 to 7 days, and send the treating team a written update every week. One named contact stays with the person from referral to permanent home.

In their words.

“When Mum was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's at 58, we were completely lost. Every provider we called said they 'do dementia too' but it was always an afterthought. Dementia Care Queensland was the first place where the person on the other end of the phone actually understood what we were going through.”
Sarah M.Daughter of a participant living with young onset Alzheimer's, Cairns
“I'm 54 and I've been living with vascular dementia for two years. I still want to live. I still want to be me. The team at Dementia Care Queensland gets that. They've helped me stay in my own home, keep doing the things I love, and plan for a future I can feel dignified about.”
Michael R.Participant living with young onset vascular dementia, Gold Coast
“As a referring clinician, I need to trust that the providers I recommend can match the complexity of my patients' conditions. Dementia Care Queensland is the only NDIS provider I refer dementia patients to without hesitation. Their coordinators ask the right questions, understand disease progression, and plan ahead.”
Dr James T.Neurologist, Brisbane
