In our brand new Care Centre, Lady Allum is now offering Dementia Rest Home Level in a secured unit.
Lady Allum offers a unique and highly personalised approach to Dementia care with our beautiful new Care Suites.
Lady Allum follows the Ruawai Philosophy of care, a Montessori based approach where person-centred care is at the heart of what we do. Our specially trained staff work to understand our residents as individuals to discover their history, needs, likes, and dislikes. This helps us to provide tailored care and find meaningful ways for residents to spend their day.
Our Care Suites are spacious and comfortable, with a larger floor space than typical care rooms, a kitchenette and roomy private ensuite. Our design team have carefully considered the environment to meet the needs of a person with dementia. From sensor lights in the bathroom, tranquil colours with the absence of confusing patterns, to viewing windows into communal areas, careful thought has been put into the little details.
The living spaces are open, welcoming and secure, and residents have access to a safe and tranquil sensory garden. Our team provides a number of suitable activities that can help residents connect to familiar pursuits such as music therapy, art activities, sensory activities, exercise, cognitive activities and more.
