The purpose-built nursing home’s new wing has its own community, where residents with memory and dementia related problems are cared for and nurtured.
This innovative centre is adding to the already high reputation of the 66-bed nursing home. The staff are highly trained and compassionate and work in an environment where no detail is too small, helping people of any age who are suffering memory loss.
Laura Newall, the manager of Hampden House, said: “Caring at Hampden House is more than a duty; it’s our ethos. We’re dedicated to fostering a compassionate, nurturing environment where every resident’s well-being is our top priority.”

The Blenheim Memory Suite
Laura describes the new suite as “a beacon of care and support for individuals living with memory and dementia-related conditions.”
There’s a specially tailored environment to care for
The individual needs of each resident are addressed in a tailored way from ongoing daily needs, to care and medical issues. A programme of cognitive stimulation and therapies is delivered with compassion to help maintain function and slow progression of memory loss.

Hampden House
Treating every resident as unique is central to Hampden House and the highly skilled staff, from multiple disciplines, meet every care need.
Laura said: “We believe that residents should be given the freedom to choose how they live their lives wherever possible. We involve residents, and were appropriate their families, in the development of individual care plans, tailored to the needs of each particular resident.”
The person-centred approach is applied to residents whether they are there for a brief respite break, end of life care, or personal and nursing care.
High staffing levels means there is always a friendly, helpful friend on hand for life’s little extras such as a chat and a cuppa or a walk around the grounds.
It all adds up to leaving residents feeling safe, secure, valued and happy.
