How our service can help you
The Lewisham Memory Service offers comprehensive assessment, treatment
and support options to anyone over the age of 18 with memory problems
likely to indicate dementia. We are not able to support those with
serious behavioural and psychological symptoms to of dementia, but can
refer on to other community mental health teams in those cases.
Our multidisciplinary team work in collaboration with the University
Hospital Lewisham. We offer a comprehensive assessment package based on
the principles of recovery and are committed to supporting carers of
people with dementia.
Following assessment, we coordinate individualised care planning. This
may include prescribing medication if appropriate, post diagnostic
support and signposting, problem solving strategies and referrals to
relevant support services such as social services and the Lewisham
Dementia Hub.
We work with the memory clinics at University Hospital Lewisham to
provide high quality specialist care.
