Compassionate, Personalised Residential Dementia Care at Swarthmore

Dementia is a complex condition that affects each person differently, which is why we believe in a personalised approach to care. At Swarthmore, we recognise the uniqueness of every individual, valuing their life story, experiences, and identity beyond their diagnosis.

Our home is built on a foundation of dignity, equality, and peace, ensuring residents and their families feel supported and reassured. We are committed to delivering the highest standard of care, providing a safe, nurturing environment where residents can thrive.

A Person-Centred Approach

We take the time to truly understand each resident—their interests, preferences, and personal history—so we can build meaningful connections and tailor our care to their needs. Our compassionate team focuses on enhancing overall well-being, ensuring every resident feels valued and respected.

Meaningful Engagement & Activities

Staying active and engaged is essential for well-being, which is why we offer a variety of enriching activities designed to bring happiness, spark creativity, and encourage social connection. Residents can enjoy:

  • Art therapy to inspire creativity
  • Music sessions to uplift and engage
  • Gentle exercises to promote mobility and well-being
  • Group outings to enjoy the community and nature

Swarthmore Activities

At Swarthmore, activities are designed to bring happiness and engagement.

These activities not only stimulate cognitive function but also provide a sense of purpose, fulfilment, and belonging.

At Swarthmore, we don’t just provide care – we create a home where residents can live comfortably, retain their dignity and be happy. 

Music

Music can trigger memories, with foot-tapping, dancing, and even singing along helping to bring people back to joyful moments. Playing instruments can also provide light physical activity as they move to the rhythm.

Memorabilia

Looking at items from the past spark’s memories and conversations, helping people reminisce about their younger years.

The Great Outdoors

Whether it’s a visit to the local pub, a stroll through a garden centre, or a wander through Swarthmore’s gardens, spending time outdoors is always refreshing.

Games and Puzzles

These activities stimulate the brain and can help slow cognitive decline by encouraging the creation of new neural connections.

Picture Albums

Looking through family photo albums or vacation snapshots is a wonderful way to trigger memories and share stories.

Cooking

Mixing ingredients, decorating biscuits, and, of course, tasting the final product is an extra treat.
