Dementia Care Adviser joins Bluebird Care
Bluebird Care appoints Tamsin Hudson as Dementia Care Adviser
Tamsin Hudson joined Bluebird Care in August 2023 as the company’s Dementia Care Adviser and leads the company's dementia services across Newbury, Basingstoke, Fleet, Farnborough and Aldershot. This appointment puts Bluebird Care in a unique position and further demonstrates our commitment to provide outstanding care to people with dementia.
Dementia Care ServicesTamsin previously worked for Age UK in Oxfordshire in a similar role and ran the popular Dementia Cafe in Newbury.
Tamsin developed her specialism in dementia care after her mother’s diagnosis in 2012. Without a dedicated guide to navigate everything that a dementia diagnosis entails, from accessing Carers’ Allowance to interacting with those with dementia, Tamsin educated herself through a series of professional qualifications to make her time with her mother as enjoyable as possible.
Seeing how much this knowledge improved her mother’s quality of life as she lived with dementia, Tamsin resolved to support others in similar situations, leaving her job in HR to apply her experience and training to the new challenge.
Tamsin is now available to Bluebird Care customers and their family carers to give tailored guidance in how to live well at home with dementia. Through adapting living spaces, or sharing tips on communication and reducing distress, Tamsin’s specialist advice helps families be better equipped to support those living at home with the condition.
