Environment

Life in our care homes is all about helping people to enjoy more independent and fulfilling lives.

We want residents and their families to look upon our care homes as their own, from the very first day they move in. Our homes have active relative and resident committees to encourage feedback, to make plans and to share information. 

Tailored to Individual Needs

Cornwall Care has both residential and nursing care homes. The type of home that your loved one requires will depend on their general health and care needs. Everyone with dementia is different. For some people with dementia, the main problems that they experience will be dementia-related, whereas for other people with dementia their main challenges may be caused by a different condition, such as a stroke.

Our residential care homes provide help with personal care such as washing, dressing and eating. In all our residential care homes staff have had specialist training in dementia care. Our nursing homes provide personal care but also have qualified nurses on duty 24 hours a day.

Inside our homes, the facilities and services are tailored to meet the needs of the individuals living there. Wings of homes are designed around themes in terms of colours and pictures on walls. These themes help people to orient themselves but they also give character and prevent homes from feeling institutional. Bedrooms must feel like a personal space and a retreat with the facilities and personal touches to match. Pets are generally made welcome.
