Dementia Care

At Manor Grange Care Home, we are pleased to be able to provide a high standard of specialist Dementia Care for people living with dementia at our care home in Edinburgh as well as residential care, nursing care, respite care and palliative care.

At Manor Grange Care Home, our approach to dementia care is resident-led, fostering next-level care that seamlessly integrates with the natural rhythms of our residents’ lives, ensuring a compassionate and personalised experience tailored to their individual needs and preferences.

Our Care Assistants and Activity Coordinators go above and beyond, collaborating with dementia residents and their loved ones to identify activities and therapies that are appropriate for their specific needs and to help them flourish, as they understand the benefits that living a fulfilled life can have on older people.

What is Dementia Care?

Dementia is a long-term illness that impacts mental functions in a variety of ways, including difficulties with speech and memory loss in older people. Those living with dementia can continue to live their lives to the fullest with the correct care and attention, whilst participating in their favourite activities. Our goal in caring for residents is to help them preserve their sense of self and independence for as long as feasible. At Manor Grange Care Home, we understand that no two people living with dementia are the same, and that although some people with dementia may only require minor assistance in managing their daily life, others may require considerably more.
