Dementia Care Home in Margate

Sandmere Care Home is a private, luxury care home located in the vibrant seaside town of Margate. Specialising in Dementia Care as well as offering Residential, Nursing, and Respite Care, our beautifully designed home provides exceptional support and accommodation for up to 68 residents in need of expert or elderly care.

What is a Dementia Care Home?

Dementia is a progressive condition that affects memory, thinking, and reasoning over time. In the earlier stages, individuals might struggle with everyday tasks such as keeping appointments or finding misplaced belongings. As the condition advances, daily routines can become increasingly difficult to manage without help, and many people eventually benefit from ongoing or full-time dementia support.

The care required can vary greatly depending on the type and stage of dementia. Some individuals may thrive in a residential dementia care setting, while others with more complex needs might be better suited to a nursing environment. Both types of care provide structured, supportive surroundings with staff trained to care for people living with dementia.

In a residential care setting, support often includes help with washing, dressing, medication, and day-to-day routines. For those with more advanced needs, such as mobility challenges or difficulties communicating, nursing dementia care homes offer a higher level of medical and specialist support around the clock.
