Specialised staff training ensures we’re equipped with the knowledge and skills to manage challenging behaviours, communication difficulties, and other dementia-related symptoms. We also use therapeutic activities that promote cognitive stimulation, physical engagement, and emotional well-being, tailored to the individual’s abilities and interests.
