Care to live well with dementia?

3rd March 2020

Dementia can feel like another world sometimes. It can mean big changes to a person's world as they know it, but some things never change. Like their story, who they matter to and who they are. So many things define us as individuals, but dementia does't have to.

Dementia doesn't define our residents. At Horsell Lodge in Woking, we get to know their world and provide care that's as individual as they are. The safety and comfort of our residents is our foremost concern and for those living with memory loss or dementia the home has a number of dementia friendly design features including...

Stable Door Design

These unique bedroom doors give residents greater choice and independence. The lower leaf can be closed to give a resident control over their personal space while still being able to engage with the people around them. The latest keyless entry technology means residents don't have to use their key as the door opens automatically on approach and is only accessible by the resident or a member of the care team.
