Complex Dementia Care

We know that finding the right home for someone with complex dementia can feel like an enormous task - especially if previous placements have not worked out, or if you have been told that a home cannot accommodate your loved one's needs.

The Gables is experienced in exactly these situations. Our specialist nursing team understands that behaviour which can seem difficult or distressing is almost always a form of communication. We approach each resident as an individual - learning what calms them, what unsettles them, what they enjoy and what matters to them - and we build their care around that understanding.

Mealtimes, activities and daily routines are designed with cognitive needs in mind. Families are actively encouraged to stay involved, share what they know about their loved one, and visit as often as they wish. And from the moment someone moves in, our team is focused on helping them settle, feel safe and experience the best possible quality of life.
