Dementia Care

A home within a home for those living with dementia

Our dedicated 14-bed dementia wing sits within the wider Eden Care Centre. It offers the intimacy of a specialist environment while still being part of our broader community of 55 residents.

Every resident receives a personalised care plan developed with their family and a consistent team they come to know and trust. No two people with dementia are the same, and we never treat them as if they are.

Is It the Right Time?

Signs dementia care may be the right step

Dementia care is the right choice when the home environment is no longer safe or stimulating enough for your loved one's needs.

Safety at home is a concern

Wandering, disorientation, or leaving appliances on unsafely. The home environment has become a risk rather than a refuge.

Increasing distress or agitation

Frequent confusion, anxiety, or distress that familiar surroundings and family care are no longer able to settle.

Specialist care is needed

The condition has progressed to a point where trained dementia specialists, structured routines, and a secure environment are required.

Caring at home has become too much

The demands of caring for someone with dementia at home have become physically and emotionally overwhelming for the family.

Medication and medical needs are complex

Medications require professional management, or medical conditions alongside dementia need consistent nursing oversight.

Diagnosis of moderate to advanced dementia

A formal diagnosis where the level of cognitive decline requires specialist, structured, 24-hour care in a purpose-designed environment.

Our Care Team

The people around your loved one

Our dementia wing is staffed by a multidisciplinary team who coordinate continuously to support every dimension of each resident's wellbeing.

Registered Nurses

On site 24/7, managing medications, monitoring health, and responding immediately to any changes in condition.

Dementia Specialists

Trained in the emotional and cognitive dimensions of memory disease, building trust through consistency and warmth.

Occupational Therapist

Assesses each resident on admission and designs their personal activities programme to keep daily life meaningful.

Activities Coordinator

Runs a full daily programme of therapeutic activities, tailored individually to each resident's interests, history, and cognitive level.

Daily Life

Every day holds something meaningful

Our activities programme is therapeutic in purpose and joyful in spirit. Activities are chosen individually because what brings one person joy does nothing for another.

Music Therapy

Music reaches deep into memory, emotion, and identity. Sessions are tailored to each resident's personal musical history.

Reminiscence

Photographs, meaningful objects, and guided storytelling reconnect residents with their long-term memories and sense of self.

Gardening

Time in the garden has a uniquely calming and grounding effect on those living with dementia. Fresh air, colour, and purpose.

Gentle Movement

Chair exercises adapted to each resident, maintaining strength, reducing agitation, and supporting restful nights. Arts, crafts, and games also feature throughout the week.
