Sensory Room
At Beaconville we are focused on the individual, their experience of dementia and we aim to offer as much stimulation as possible. Theraputic design technology offers clients the opprtunity to interact in the specially built sensory room with fibre optics and bubble towers. The masssage chair is a firm favourite providing relaxation and stimulation.

Care provision will never be one size fits all….

Our Principles
Our approach is based on respect, dignity and indivuality, an approach called person centered care.

Our Activities
At Beaconville we have a full-time activities team who recognise the importance of understanding a client’s history and using this knowledge to provide meaningful activity based on past lifestyles, interests and beliefs. The activities team work closely with clients, family and other staff to facillitate the opportunity not only to be entertained but engaged. One to one sessions are scheduled and in this way we focus on each client’s individuality and orientation.
