What is Dementia Care?
Dementia care in a care home is focused on providing personalised support and assistance to residents with dementia. A person-centred approach is adopted where the needs and preferences of each resident are taken into account to provide a comfortable and homely environment. Many care homes offer luxury living with big and bright bedrooms that are designed to meet the personal tastes of residents. The goal is to create an atmosphere that feels like home, where residents feel comfortable and relaxed.
A care home setting encourages residents to participate in activities and engage with the local community to foster new friendships. This helps to combat loneliness and isolation, which is common for people with dementia. The care team in a care home will help residents to socialise with like-minded individuals and provide a sense of belonging and purpose. The aim is to provide a safe and supportive environment where residents can maintain their independence, dignity, and quality of life, just like they would in their own home. A care home setting also helps to promote well-being and enhance the lives of residents with dementia.

Residential Care
Residential care is a suitable care type for older people who can no longer live alone. Many individuals prefer to live in a residential care home as it provides them with security, regular socialisation and ongoing support on a daily basis. Residents won’t have to worry about the upkeep of a household, and instead can focus on the things that bring joy to their lives. Residential care provides 24/7 support and assistance to residents whenever they should need it to help them live the best quality of life.
Our purpose-built care home in Newton Mearns provides the highest standards of care for every resident, no matter their needs. No matter if someone needs a little or a lot of assistance, residents can always rely on us for around-the-clock support. Every person who lives at our care home will have the opportunity to partake in the activities they enjoy as well as experience new things, while we take care of all responsibilities including housekeeping, meals, finances and administrative duties.
Nursing Care
Nursing care is a form of specialised care given to those who require medical care and personal care from a team of nurses on a 24-hour basis. Those with a physical disability, or a long-term health condition, and those who have high dependency needs will receive professional nursing care provided by a compassionate nursing team day and night. We can adapt our activities and facilities so that everyone, no matter their capabilities can get involved.
At Mearns View, our nursing team is committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred care to every individual, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy in our residence. Our purpose-built care home is equipped with modern nursing technology, including nurse call systems, profiling beds, hoists, syringe drivers and much more. These facilities aid in providing effective care to those who need it most, while maintaining high standards of infection control. We strive to create a safe and comfortable environment that meets the physical and emotional needs of our residents.
Respite Care
We offer respite care for anyone in need of short-term care, including individuals who are currently being cared for by a loved one and require temporary relief. During their stay with us, the carer can take a break from their duties, while our team takes care of everything for a while. Respite care is also suitable for those who require daily support following an operation, illness or injury.
The duration of respite care can vary from a few weeks to a few months, depending on the individual’s needs. It can also be a useful way to trial a care home to determine if it’s the right fit for someone. Regardless of the length of stay, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality care to all of our residents. Our team is committed to providing exceptional care and support to ensure that every resident’s needs are met during their time with us.
Here For You & Your Loved Ones
Choosing a care home that meets the needs of a loved one can be a daunting task to achieve. Thorough research is essential to finding a care home that fulfills all the necessary requirements, starting with finding a care home that offers the most suitable care type with the correct level of care to meet an individual’s needs. It is common for a person’s care needs to change over time, therefore finding a care home that can cater to a range of care needs is best for a continuum of care.
At Mearns View Care Home, we understand the importance of finding the right care home and are here to provide support and advice to prospective residents and family members. We invite you into our home where you can speak to our Home Manager and discuss the individual’s care needs to establish a suitable care approach. Once a resident moves into our care home, the necessary care team will create a care plan tailored to their individual requirements.
