Casa de Saúde do Telhal, in partnership with the Municipality of Oeiras, is implementing the project in the municipality of Oeiras with the aim of providing caregivers of people with dementia with short breaks in the provision of care that can be dedicated to self-care activities and social interaction. During these caregiver breaks, the person with dementia is accompanied, in a home context, by volunteers with specific training and supervised by a specialist technician. This support for people with dementia is based on the creation of a close relationship and the realization of recreational activities and social interaction. Volunteers commit to dedicate between 2 and 4 hours per week to carry out a home visit. The family is selected according to the volunteer's geographical area as well as time availability. Volunteers receive specific training and are closely monitored by the volunteer manager.
