Solutions designed with dementia in mind
At Arjo, we believe dementia care should be built around the individual. Care needs to adapt to what each person can still do, supporting their routines, preferences, and independence.
Together with the Dementia Services Development Centre (DSDC), we design environments and solutions that help support everyday dementia care in practice. Our approach brings together clinical insight, thoughtful design, and solutions designed with dementia in mind, including DSDC accredited products.

Managing pressure injury risk as needs change in dementia care
People living with dementia may face an increased risk of pressure injuries as mobility declines and more time is spent in bed. Reduced mobility, poor nutrition, incontinence, and a reduced ability to communicate pain or discomfort can all contribute to this risk.
AtmosAir® Velaris works alongside Sorrento bed as part of a dementia care routine that requires frequent and ongoing assessment. The combination supports adaptation of support surface choice in line with changing needs, helping minimise unnecessary disruption for the individual.
A broader portfolio of reactive support surfaces and complementary active solutions enables care teams to respond to changing needs while maintaining comfort, dignity, and continuity in everyday care.
Comfort Collection supports dignity in dementia care
Personal care routines can feel unfamiliar and uncomfortable for people living with dementia. The Hygiene Comfort Collection helps create a more reassuring and comfortable experience during these moments.
By allowing care to be adapted to the individual, the robes and cushion in the Comfort Collection help maintain privacy, comfort, and dignity before, during, and after hygiene routines.
Provide comfort and dignity in dementia care bathing
Bathing can be an important moment to create comfort and a sense of wellbeing for people living with dementia. Parker® bath systems are designed to support a calm and dignified experience, adapted to individual needs and mobility levels.
Parker helps maintain comfort, dignity, and participation during bathing routines, while creating a more reassuring environment for both residents and caregivers.
Promote a sense of calm and comfort
in dementia care bathing
Symbliss® brings a more sensory and relaxing dimension to dementia care routines.
By combining gentle movement, comfort, and a calming environment, it helps create
an immersive bathing experience that feels more natural and reassuring.
This promotes relaxation, comfort, and wellbeing, while encouraging participation
in everyday routines.
Dementia care bathing made more secure
The Symbliss bath chair is designed to support a more comfortable and reassuring bathing experience for people living with dementia. It enables a secure and supported position, helping individuals feel more at ease during bathing.
By supporting eye contact and interaction, the chair encourages participation while maintaining comfort, dignity, and a sense of reassurance.
Providing a more comfortable, dignified bathing experience
The Symbliss bath enables a more comfortable and supportive immersive bathing experience for people living with dementia. It is designed to help individuals feel at ease during bathing, while allowing care to be adapted to their needs and preferences.
By making bathing more accessible and comfortable, it helps turn everyday routines into more positive moments, maintaining comfort, dignity, and wellbeing.
Improving caregiver access and positioning in dementia care
Carendo® is designed to support positioning during hygiene routines, helping individuals remain comfortable while giving caregivers easy and controlled access throughout care. This allows showering and toileting tasks to be carried out with greater precision and consistency.
By enabling closer interaction during care, Carendo supports more direct engagement with the individual. This helps create a more personal and attentive dementia care experience, where positioning, comfort, and communication are better aligned.
Comfortable and adaptable showering in dementia care
Carevo® is built for situations where individuals need more support during showering. It helps create a stable and controlled position, allowing care to be carried out more smoothly and with greater confidence.
With greater control and adaptability, caregivers can tailor each interaction, helping maintain dignity and adapt care to individual needs and preferences.
Enabling caregivers to deliver one-to-one dementia care
Carino® is designed to support essential hygiene routines with a single caregiver, including showering, toileting, and personal care. By reducing the need for multiple transfers, it helps create a more consistent and manageable care flow.
This enables more time for one-to-one interactions, helping caregivers focus on the individual rather than the task, while maintaining comfort and dignity throughout the routine.
Make movement an active part of dementia care
Sara® Flex is designed to keep people involved in movement during everyday transfers in dementia care. By enabling standing and raising, it encourages individuals to take part in mobility rather than being passively moved.
This way, transfers become shared moments of activity, making movement feel more natural while maintaining a sense of involvement in daily routines.
Make transfers more independent in dementia care
Sara® Stedy is designed to make every day sit to stand transfers simpler and more independent in dementia care. Its intuitive, non-powered design enables a single caregiver to assist while encouraging individuals to take an active role in their own movement.
People living with dementia can use their own strength during transfers, helping maintain confidence and a sense of independence as part of daily routines.
Full support for limited movement in dementia care
Maxi Move® 5 is designed for situations where individuals require assistance with movement in dementia care. It enables safe and controlled transfers when standing and active participation are no longer possible, helping ensure continuity in care as needs change.
Even at this stage, it supports close interaction while maintaining a consistent, dignified experience during transfers.
Enable smoother transfers in dementia care
Maxi Sky® 2 supports smooth and continuous movement across the care environment in dementia care. By enabling transfers between bed, chair, and hygiene areas, it creates a more consistent flow of care and supports caregivers in handling transfers more efficiently.
This allows transfers to be carried out with minimal disruption, maintaining comfort and familiarity while making everyday care more manageable.
Nordic Sensi Chair:
Bringing sensory calm to dementia care
The Nordic SensiChair creates a multi-sensory experience that brings calm into dementia care.
Gentle rocking, soothing music, and tactile stimulation work together to provide a reassuring
and comforting environment for people living with dementia. A large randomised controlled trial1
demonstrated a significant reduction in distress, agitation, apathy, irritability and disinhibition of
residents using the Nordic Sensi Chair with a subsequent increase in psychological well being
and work performance of caregivers
This decrease in occupational disruptiveness for caregivers and improvement in quality of life
for residents represents a positive non pharmacological approach to caring for nursing home
residents with dementia.
