Understanding Dementia Care

Dementia is a progressive condition that often affects memory, thinking, and daily activities, making specialised support essential for maintaining quality of life. Choosing care homes for patients with dementia ensures that individuals receive not only top-tier medical and personal assistance but also emotional and social support. At Bothwell Castle Care Home, we provide specialist dementia care that encompasses everything from help with personal hygiene and daily tasks to managing medical needs, all within a safe and nurturing environment.

We prioritise a person-centred approach, building care plans that reflect each resident’s unique needs, routines, and preferences. Our dementia care services focus on preserving independence and dignity, encouraging social engagement, and fostering meaningful relationships. With a strong emphasis on community, our approach helps residents feel connected, valued, and supported as they continue to live fulfilling lives.
