Westhaven is committed to providing meaningful, inclusive, and individualised activity and engagement opportunities for people living with dementia.
We follow Ways to Wellbeing programme which recognises that every person retains their personhood, abilities, preferences, and need for connection regardless of cognitive impairment.
We offer
- Individualised activities that make sense to the person
- Provide Comfort, reassurance, and meaningful moments every day
- Our activities happen in everyday care, conversations, touch, music, and shared moments.
The programme is designed for people living with dementia and is grounded in Person-Centred Care, Namaste Care principles, and informed by the Pool Activity Level (PAL) Tool. The aim is to enhance quality of life, wellbeing, dignity, and meaningful engagement for all residents.

Personal touches welcome
We understand how important it is for residents to feel at home. That’s why we warmly welcome personal items, small furnishings and treasured belongings. Creating a familiar and personalised space helps foster a sense of continuity and comfort, which is central to our approach to care.
Safety and accessibility
Every room is fitted with a nurse call point, so that residents are able to request assistance at any time. We also provide access to a cordless phone ensuring that residents can stay in contact with friends and family, whenever they wish.
