We understand the specific challenges faced by people living with dementia as their abilities change. Ferndown Manor has been designed to provide an enriching environment for your loved one. Our bright colours and clear signage are proven to help foster independence, and with activities, including music, art and movement, there’s a strong focus on the emotional and physical wellbeing of residents.

Our nursing team works with medical professionals and GPs to create a care plan around your loved one’s needs. We support residents with many complex conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and stroke, easing the pressure on you and your family. 

Allowing your loved one to enjoy a fulfilling lifestyle, and to remain as independent as possible, our team at Ferndown Manor offers you complete peace of mind. By providing a wide variety of activities, including art, gentle exercise and gardening, residents experience an enriching environment. There’s a welcoming hair salon,  café, and even a cinema, which are available to every resident, increasing that sense of independence and wellbeing.

Our chef-led catering team ensures that individual preferences are factored into their menu plans. We appreciate that your loved one's needs may change over time, so our menus are regularly reviewed and adapted, making sure meals are always delicious, healthy and accessible.

When looking after a loved one at home, it’s easy to forget your own needs. Our dedicated team provides short term respite care, allowing you to enjoy a much-needed break, while we care for your older relative. We also offer convalescent care, offering a seamless transition from hospital to home.

Near the end of your loved one’s life, we focus on palliative care, supporting them, and your family, through this emotional time. Working closely with GPs and healthcare colleagues, we create a tailored plan to their exact needs, ensuring dignity and comfort in their final hours.
