Taking inspiration from the household model, our first new specialist village hopes to enable people with dementia to live as independently as possible, for as long as possible. Set in acres of safe and secure landscaped gardens and private woodland, doors open easily to allow residents to walk freely in the open air whenever they wish. State of the art sensors ensure those living in the nursing h
ome are quietly monitored, namaste sessions are used to calm and relax and all around there are views of green spaces across the Cheshire countryside. Secure roof terraces allow easy access to enjoy the sunshine. In the households, generous en-suite bedrooms provide luxurious personal space and have patio doors opening onto the beautiful grounds. Residents will be able to cook and clean for themselves if they wish (with help from household assistants if needed). Independence is nurtured and encouraged. Visitors are welcome; a cafe/bar provides a place to sit and chat whilst warmer days offer the chance to wander through the grounds with younger visitors even having a play area to enjoy! Who says visiting grandparents needs to be boring? This is Richmond Willaston - this is dementia care with a difference.
