Dementia Care

A personal assessment of each resident ensures that we are provided with all the important information to enable us to take care of your loved ones health and wellbeing to the highest standard. Every resident is treated as an individual to ensure that they feel part of the Port Regis family.

DEMENTIA CARE

The term ‘dementia’ is used to describe multiple different conditions. More often than not, the symptoms include memory loss, mood swings, and trouble with reasoning and communication. This normally occurs when the brain is damaged by certain diseases, with Alzheimer’s being the most common one.

Port Regis employs a truly passionate team of care professionals who will provide your loved one with dignified care they will benefit from. Our care home offers a secure, homely environment where the well-being of the people who live with us is always the number one priority.

There are multiple daily activities carried out at our Broadstairs care home, all of which are geared towards the resident’s mental health and sense of well-being. We have a lot of insight into memory-affecting illnesses – including dementia – and are fully trained to help manage these conditions with sensitivity.

Independence

We aim to enable the people under our care to maximise their abilities and retain their independence as far as possible. The rooms at Port Regis have been designed to encourage the retention of daily life skills for as long as possible.

From comfortable, adapted living accommodation to communal areas with supportive furnishings and activity rooms, the space at Port Regis gives us the ability to provide the right care and assistance to meet the assessed needs of the residents under our care.

Dementia Care

Those who are receiving dementia care live in our specially designed separate wing, which uses colour coordination, photographs and other memory techniques to assist those living with dementia to retain their independence as much as possible.

A selection of different rooms is available to suit everyone’s needs and requirements. We offer premium rooms up to a selection of platinum rooms. We do accept local authority funding which can be topped up along with self-funded residents. All of our rooms are beautifully designed enjoying the views across the grounds and fields.

Residents are encouraged to bring in any special items from home to ensure their room feels like a home away from home.
