At RICE we offer a number of different healthcare services
The RICE Memory Clinic offers a specialist NHS service to assess, diagnose and treat people with memory problems. You can read more about what a typical patient journey might look like. The RICE Memory Clinic was recently rated ‘outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission.
If you live outside of Bath and North East Somerset, where a GP will normally refer NHS patients to RICE, you can access our outstanding service by private referral. The RICE private memory clinic is led by Dr Tomas Welsh on Mondays and Fridays.
RICE delivers support and education courses for those living with a dementia diagnosis, as well as loved ones. We offer courses for people newly diagnosed with dementia and those who want to improve their memory. Our course for carers is for loved ones who support a person living with dementia.
If you or a loved one lives with a memory problem, why not come along to The RICE Centre for regular seasonal activities to relax and connect? Enjoy free music, crafts and local trips. Great for those with a dementia diagnosis as well as people on the waiting list for a memory assessment. See the latest events and activities schedule.
RICE’s aim is to help people to live as well as possible for as long as possible. We diagnose, treat and research Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, such as vascular dementia. We continue to seek better care, treatment and ultimately a cure for dementia.
Additionally, we’re also researching other chronic health conditions in older age, such as Parkinson’s disease and worsening muscle and bone health. This will help us to understand the common health problems we experience in older age even better. Read more about all of our research at RICE.
