At Almond Valley Care Home, we take pride in our specialist dementia care. Our dedicated team of healthcare professionals undergo regular training to ensure care meets best practices and is effective at every stage of dementia.
We are committed to enhancing the quality of life for all our dementia residents. Our team creates personalised care plans to support their flourishing within a secure and nurturing environment.
Dementia is a chronic neurological condition that impacts cognitive functions such as speech, behaviour, and memory. Receiving a dementia diagnosis can be overwhelming, but in a care home setting, individuals can still lead fulfilling lives with our round-the-clock care and support. At our nursing home for people with dementia, each resident receives a personalised care plan tailored to their unique needs and interests, recognising that no two individuals are alike.
At our dementia care home, our staff undergo comprehensive training in understanding the complexities of dementia and its symptoms. Our approach emphasises awareness and fostering connections. Our dedicated team enriches each resident’s daily life with exceptional care. The dementia care unit is designed to minimise anxiety and confusion among residents with tailored activities aimed at enhancing their mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.
We recognise the significance of gathering thorough information before transitioning to a care home, ensuring expectations can be fulfilled. To assist with this, we’ve compiled a list of our top three frequently asked questions about dementia care. If your question isn’t addressed here, please feel free to reach out to our team today.
Prior to admission to Almond Valley Care Home, we conduct meetings with the individual and their family to ensure we can accommodate their specific needs. Together, we assess their care requirements, interests and preferences to develop a personalised care plan. Our person-centred approach aims to uphold residents’ dignity and promote their independence throughout their stay.
Our dementia care team participates in ongoing training sessions to ensure they possess a thorough understanding of the various stages of dementia. Equipped with extensive experience and knowledge, our staff is dedicated to supporting residents with daily tasks, including communication and personal care, delivering effective care tailored to the needs of each individual living with dementia.
We take pride in offering an activities programme for all residents, featuring both group and one-on-one activities and therapies. Dementia-friendly activities such as arts and crafts, music or pet therapy and reminiscence activities are included. Participating in these activities enhances the mental, physical, and social wellbeing of our residents.
