Dementia Services

Personalised care for our Newgrange patients

All of our residents at Newgrange are individually assessed to determine their needs so that we personalise our care services to meet those needs, whilst maximising the potential to live a normal life.

All of our care staff have undertaken dementia and elderly mental health training and know how to deal with the additional needs caused by dementia and give the best possible care.

We also provide several specialist facilities and features to assist the dementia sufferer to be as independent and able to live with the condition as well as possible.

Overall Experience 5 out of 5

The level of care and compassion is of the highest level and can not be faulted, nothing is too much trouble. Visiting family members are treated with the same level of care and thoughtfulness too. The premises are secure and immaculately clean. The staff are so polite and at the top of their chosen profession. I could not ask for a better place for my Nan to be cared for and know that the family have chosen the right place for Nan and that is so comforting and dispels any worries when you leave when time to go home.
