Purpose-Build Care Home Offers Specific Support For Dementia

United Kingdom – May 7, 2022

Somerset, UK. Dementia is a common neurological condition that affects many people later in life. It is often something that’s hard to avoid and equally hard to treat. The problem for many individuals is that some of the care services out there aren’t tailor-made for people with dementia. This makes it hard to get the right treatment to live with this condition. 

In Somerset, there’s one care home that’s looking to buck this trend. La Fontana Dementia Nursing Home in Martock has been specially built to cater to those with dementia and mental health problems. It offers a unique level of support that’s designed around the specific needs of those suffering from these conditions. As a result, people can finally get the help they need, bringing peace of mind to both residents and their loved ones. 

Designed with features for individuals living with dementia

Upon constructing this care home, it was clear that some unique features needed to be developed that catered to those living with dementia. La Fontana Dementia Nursing Home is equipped with special sensors in every room, alerting nurses and staff to movement at night. People with dementia and mental health conditions are prone to getting up and wandering at night, often getting lost and confused. This feature slowly illuminates the room and notifies the on-site staff of the movement. They can quickly head to the room, calm the situation down and put the individual at ease. 

There are various places throughout the facility that focus on relaxation and provide a calming influence to residents. This includes the Italian fountain and landscaped gardens. The gardens have specifically been designed to be dementia-friendly, stimulating the senses while providing a tranquil area to relax. 

Activities that help residents with their daily lives

As well as being equipped with features that help individuals with dementia, La Fontana Dementia Nursing Home also provides a range of meaningful activities. Residents can take part in these activities with staff members or visitors, and they occur every single day. 

The purpose of these activities is that they’re specially curated to engage the mind, body and spirit. They target things like memory and cognitive skills, ensuring that the residents can be both physically and mentally active at all times. 

The team at the nursing home has been selected because all of them have experience working with dementia and other mental health conditions. As a result, this is one of the leading care homes in the country for supporting those with these medical problems.
