Dementia Care

Our home is filled with dedicated staff members, including Carers and Activity Coordinators who go to great efforts to work closely with our dementia residents and their loved ones. By cultivating these strong relationships, we can identify activities and therapies that meet our residents’ specific needs and help them to lead a fulfilled life.
What is Dementia Care?
Dementia is a long-term illness that has a variety of types and severities, and whilst it can affect people in different ways, it most commonly impacts mental functions such as speech and memory. With the right level of care and support, those living with dementia can continue their daily tasks and activities, and live their lives the way they want. At Tŷ Llandaff Care Home, we strive to not only care for our residents but to support them in maintaining their independence and continuing to do the things they love.

We work hard to create an activities programme that is fully inclusive and dementia friendly. All the services we provide are comprehensive and given with respect, allowing each of our residents to live a happy life with plenty of opportunities.

When is Dementia Care Needed?
With dementia comes a variety of daily challenges for both those living with dementia and those loved ones who care for them. As a progressive condition, dementia continues to affect people over time meaning those suffering with the condition may require more care and support. You may notice when someone is showing signs of dementia as they may appear to forget things, misplace items and even experience difficulty with daily tasks. It is at this point where you may decide that the person with dementia requires more daily support and care than you can provide and moving into a care facility may be the best option.

Following the Government guidelines, our team at Tŷ Llandaff Care Home work around-the-clock and go to great lengths to ensure that every part of our facility is safe and secure.
