Our mission is to promote and encourage a better understanding of dementia, by offering an accepting environment where people from all backgrounds can be themselves, feel at home and, most importantly, still be part of a fulfilling community. Has shouldering all of the responsibility become too much to cope with? Because of your loved one’s dementia, is socialising starting to feel like a thing of the past? If you have answered YES to any of the above questions, Safe Haven Dementia Centre is the answer you are looking for. People with dementia and their carers often feel isolated within their communities and struggle to cope. Safe Haven Dementia Centre will be able to offer them a welcome respite from their equally difficult situations. As a dementia day care centre, we will fully assess each client in person, to make sure that the environment and care is suitable for their needs. We will keep a detailed behavioural chart on each client, which will enable us to understand any triggers that may result in various negative behavioural issues. This will also be of great use to the current carer, helping them to handle any difficult behaviour that may occur at home. During respite sessions, clients can choose to take part in a variety of person-centred activities and therapies, and enjoy our regular entertainment programmes. All of our staff are experienced at working with people with mild symptoms of dementia, such as some memory loss or confusion, right through to the severe stages, and all have previously worked within elderly mentally infirm units (EMI), where various levels of client aggression and frustration are common place. If daily respite is not what you’re looking for, as you prefer to stay by your loved one’s side, Safe Haven Dementia Centre is the ideal venue where you can enjoy quality time together by joining in with the fun and activities.
