Our Approach to Dementia Care
Dementia support at Anchorage Care Home includes the following areas:
Safe and Comfortable Environment
Our dementia support home in Pulborough has relaxed and welcoming facilities with a layout where our dementia residents can thrive. As a luxury boutique care home, every room is spacious, comfortable and residents are encouraged to personalise their spaces with items from home, including their favourite chairs. The building is easy to navigate, with clearly marked areas, gentle lighting and secure gardens. Residents can safely enjoy outdoor spaces and peaceful communal areas at their own pace.
Compassionate Supervision and Care
Anchorage has a stable, experienced care team with no agency carers, just familiar faces who genuinely know the residents. Our carers are attentive, noticing small changes early, whether it’s in mood, appetite or general wellbeing. There’s always someone available, quietly offering support exactly when needed.
Activities for All Abilities
We plan activities specifically around what helps residents living with dementia feel calm, connected and engaged. Gentle exercise classes, memory-focused sessions, music, singing and sensory activities are regularly available to stimulate minds without causing stress. Quiet spaces and one-to-one interactions are always available, ensuring residents can comfortably participate or relax in a familiar setting.
Personalised Care Plans
Before residents join Anchorage, we talk closely with families to learn each person’s habits, likes, dislikes and care needs – including medication routines and preferred activities. Families remain closely involved and we work with local GPs and healthcare teams to help us update care plans regularly to reflect changes as they happen.
More Than Just a Dementia Support Home
Residents living with dementia at Anchorage are included naturally in day-to-day life rather than treated as separate or different. Our team learns each person’s routines and preferences, which means support fits around them, not the other way around. We carefully match activities to individual abilities and moods, helping residents feel involved without pressure and even creating some memorable Magic Moments they can cherish.
Residents see the same carers regularly, which builds trust and ensures subtle changes in their health or well-being don’t go unnoticed. Family members are always welcome, whether dropping in for a quick visit, joining in activities or sitting down with staff to talk things through.
Alongside residential and respite services, Anchorage provides dementia care in West Sussex that’s completely practical and supportive. Here, your loved one can live comfortably with respectful support always nearby.
