Dementia Care

Bothwell Castle Care Home in South Lanarkshire is pleased to provide Dementia Care for those who are living with the condition. Our staff have had extensive dementia training, meaning they’re specifically trained, informed and skilled within our dementia unit; all certified by SSSC (Scottish Social Services Council). We take pride in offering the best level of care and respect to each and every one of our residents. For individuals with dementia, our home provides a safe, caring, and welcoming atmosphere, with letterboxes at the end of each corridor within our home, providing residents with familiarity and comfort, it gives our residents the impression of engaging in normal, everyday tasks by giving them somewhere to post a letter. We also have a sensory room which is perfect for our dementia residents, with soft lights and sounds, our dementia residents are eased through daily planned activities, social and mental stimulation and constant engagement and support. We also offer constant support to our residents loved ones, as well as our local community. Every 3 months we have dementia groups come into our home, where we support one another (families and those suffering with the condition) and put on a range of activities, ensuring no one is left out of the Bothwell Castle Care Home family. Our main goal is to ensure everyone feels as if Bothwell Castle Care Home is a true home away from home.
