Celebrating The Opening Of Nettlebridge Dementia Community

Rowan Park Care Home is delighted to announce the opening of Nettlebridge, our new specialised dementia community, which promises to offer a nurturing and stimulating environment for residents with dementia. This exciting development has already seen some of our current residents moving up to Nettlebridge, where they have been exploring and enjoying their favourite spots within this thoughtfully designed space.

Nettlebridge is designed to cater to the unique needs of residents with dementia, offering a variety of features and amenities to enhance their quality of life. Among the highlights is a Nursery for Doll Therapy, a therapeutic activity known to provide comfort and emotional engagement for individuals with dementia. Additionally, Destination Areas within Nettlebridge are designed to stimulate memories and provide opportunities for residents to reminisce about their lives, careers and cherished memories.

A standout feature of Nettlebridge is the Cinema, which is a versatile space that can be used for watching films, TV shows and hosting other activities. This, combined with the beautifully decorated open-plan lounge and dining area, creates a welcoming and comfortable environment where residents can socialie and relax.

Residents who have moved into Nettlebridge or have joined the community recently have been adapting well and appreciating the new amenities. The supportive and engaging environment helps them feel more at home and fosters a sense of community and belonging.

In addition to the new facilities, Nettlebridge has been actively participating in various activities. Throughout June and July, residents have been enjoying the excitement of the Euro football tournament, creating a lively and festive atmosphere. Other activities have included Pottery Day, where residents explored their creativity with clay and flower arranging, which brought the beauty of nature indoors and allowed residents to express themselves through floral art.

The opening of Nettlebridge marks a significant milestone for Rowan Park Care Home, reinforcing our commitment to providing specialised care that meets the diverse needs of our residents. The team at Rowan Park is dedicated to creating an environment where every resident feels valued, engaged and supported.

We invite families and community members to visit Nettlebridge and see firsthand the wonderful new community we have created. For more information about Rowan Park Care Home and our dementia care services, please visit our website and contact our team.
