Why Choose Harrier Grange for Dementia Care?
Our dementia care team includes registered nurses and care professionals trained in the complexities of dementia care. They understand how to navigate behavioral changes, provide effective communication techniques that minimise frustration, and create a calming environment that reduces agitation. This expertise ensures residents feel safe, supported, and understood.
We believe each resident deserves care tailored to their unique needs and abilities. Our person-centered approach involves getting to know each person’s history, preferences, and strengths. We take the time to understand their communication style, preferred daily routines, and past experiences. This holistic approach ensures care feels respectful and familiar, promoting a greater sense of security and comfort.
Find Purpose in a Home-Like Environment
Isolation worsens the symptoms of dementia. Our dedicated activities team creates a stimulating and inclusive program designed for those with cognitive decline. Activities are designed to be enjoyable and engaging, yet adapted to accommodate individual abilities. This might involve reminiscence therapy, where residents share stories and memories from their past lives, sparking conversation and connection.
We encourage participation in everyday tasks, like folding laundry or setting the table, providing a sense of accomplishment and preserving a sense of purpose within the daily routine.
We prioritise a warm, familiar setting that reduces confusion and anxiety for residents. Our comfortable common spaces, personalised resident rooms, and focus on community to ensure a supportive home away from home.
