Welcome to Roselea Specialised Dementia Care. We are a standalone boutique dementia facility in Claudelands, Hamilton and specialise in providing 24/7 quality care for people living with a dementia, including long term and respite care.
Our staff are highly trained with all forms of dementia so you can count on us to provide high quality care and support at any stage.
Because of our specialism, we can focus on offering a high level of care in a boutique environment but without the boutique price tag. Our model of care is centred on truly getting to know each person and their family, enabling us to tailor care to each resident's unique needs. We recognise that no two people have the same needs, and as a result, our care is tailored around each individual person.
We consider Roselea an extension of the family home, where our primary aim is to reduce stress and anxiety for our residents by creating an environment that is calming, friendly, and familiar.
We understand the process of finding and living with suitable long-term dementia care for your loved ones can be daunting and emotional, and we’re here not only look after our residents but also their families. If you’re unsure of the process, just give us a call or visit us to determine if Roselea is right for your family.

| Situated on a peaceful suburban street in Claudelands Hamilton, our recently refurbished one-level 680 square metre home is purpose-built for people living with a dementia. Our facility has inviting spaces that are furnished like a real home rather than a health care facility. Roselea is cosy, comfortable and quiet and reminiscent of residents’ own homes. We have 3 lounge/diners, 19 bedrooms, two courtyards and a secure front garden for our residents to enjoy. We offer plenty of space and freedom to cater for residents’ day-to-day choices, whether their preference is to visit friends’ rooms, take a quick nap in a room with therapeutic music, engage in set activities or just watch the world go by. The choice is entirely theirs and we give them freedom to manage their own schedules. | |

Special Features
| Why Roselea At Roselea, we concentrate only on dementia care and nothing else, so our team is expert at dealing the unique needs of dementia sufferers and how best to help them thrive. Our rest home was built specifically for people living with dementia to enable them to uphold their independence and live a more comfortable life in a homely and familiar environment. We believe that people living with dementia should have every opportunity to live as independently as possible, function at their greatest potential and enjoy life. ** Tailored and individual care Because of our specialism, we can focus on offering a high level of care in a boutique environment but without the boutique price tag. Our model of care is centred on truly getting to know each person and their family, enabling us to tailor care to each resident's unique needs. We recognise that no two people have the same needs, and as a result, our care is tailored around each individual person. At Roselea, every resident is treated as an equal, and is free to make their own choices around timings, clothing, and activities. We have no set visiting times and welcome and support families and friends. The staff team are very generous with their time and affection and like to have fun. ** Feelings matter At Roselea we believe that as a person’s dementia progresses and their cognition (ability to make decisions) deteriorate, they go from being thinking beings to ‘feeling’ beings. Most of their decisions and communications are based around their present feelings and their sense of reality. We make a special effort to ‘jump into their bubble’ and connect with their present feelings to interpret their words or communications, regardless of how irrational these may seem to others. We create a home and offer care which is calming and makes sense of the anxiety they may feel. ** Dedicated staff We have highly trained staff that specialise in the unique challenges that dementia brings. They are qualified and keep their training of a high standard so you can rest assured that your family members are in good hands. |
