Kingsman House was specifically designed to ease the distress caused by dementia. Our simple and easy-to-navigate building layout, combined with the use of bright colours and clear signage, helps to reduce confusion. We’ve also included visual cues and sensory reminders throughout the home to help those with dementia. Our home features a restaurant and bar area where residents can enjoy delicious meals and socialise with others. We also have beautifully designed lounges and common areas for relaxation, socialisation, and activities. Our chapel, dating back to when the home was run by nuns, adds a unique and spiritual touch. |
