Dementia Care

At Daisy Nook House Care Home in Ashton-under-Lyne, we provide specialist dementia care for older people who need additional support with daily life. We understand that living with dementia can affect people in different ways, influencing their memory, communication, confidence and ability to manage familiar routines.
Our team takes time to get to know each resident as an individual, learning about their life experiences, interests, preferences and the things that help them feel comfortable. By understanding the person behind the diagnosis, we can provide care that feels personal, reassuring and respectful.
We aim to create a welcoming environment where residents can feel settled, maintain their independence where possible and continue enjoying the things that are important to them.

A Person-Centred Approach to Dementia Care

No two people experience dementia in exactly the same way. The support someone needs can depend on their circumstances, personality and how their condition affects everyday life.

At Daisy Nook House, we take an individual approach to dementia care. We work with residents and their families to understand their history, preferences, routines and support needs. This information helps us develop care plans that reflect the person and provide guidance for our team.
Our team provide support with everyday activities such as washing, dressing, personal care and mobility, while encouraging residents to do as much as they comfortably can for themselves.

We also understand the importance of patience, reassurance and clear communication. Taking time to listen, offering gentle guidance and maintaining familiar routines can help residents feel more at ease throughout the day.

Supporting Everyday Life with Dementia

Living with dementia does not mean losing the opportunity to enjoy everyday experiences. Familiar activities, social interaction and having a sense of routine can all remain important parts of life.

At Daisy Nook House, we offer a varied activities programme designed around residents’ interests and abilities. Activities provide opportunities to stay involved, enjoy time with others and continue exploring familiar hobbies.
Residents can also spend time in our comfortable lounges, enjoy the landscaped gardens or take part in outings using the home’s minibus. Some may prefer the company of others, while others may enjoy quieter moments in a more peaceful space.

Dementia Care FAQs

Dementia care is support for people whose lives are affected by conditions that cause changes to memory, thinking, communication and everyday abilities. It can include help with personal care and daily routines, as well as reassurance, companionship and activities suited to the person’s interests and abilities.

There is no single point at which someone with dementia should move into a care home. It may be worth considering when they need more support than can be provided safely at home, when their needs become more difficult to manage or when family carers are finding it increasingly challenging to provide the level of support required.
The decision should take account of the person’s individual circumstances, wishes and care needs.

Activities are planned around residents’ interests and abilities. At Daisy Nook House, the programme offers opportunities to enjoy hobbies, socialise and take part in different experiences. Residents can also enjoy the home’s lounges and gardens, as well as outings using the minibus.
