Dementia is an umbrella term used to describe a range of symptoms associated with cognitive impairment. Is your loved-one displaying any of these top ten signs? Being diagnosed with dementia early on, will give your loved-one the best chance of receiving the right treatment soon enough for it to make a difference.

It will also give you time to plan together for the future, which may include making it possible for them to live in an environment that caters specifically for their needs – such as Prim Villa.

Giving your loved-one with dementia the benefit of living in a specialised home like Prim Villa could make all the difference to their quality of life.

One of the common myths about dementia is that there is no hope for anyone who has it. In truth, there are therapies and techniques that can help control symptoms and give people with dementia a better quality of life.

Prim Villa, situated in Primrose, specialises in creating the best possible environment for people with dementia and has the dedicated staff and specialised equipment to make this possible.

Up to 42 people with advanced dementia receive the frequent and specific care they need in Prim Villa’s Care Centre.

Up to 35 people with moderate dementia benefit from the smaller, home-like environments provided in Prim Villa’s three mid-care houses, Prim Cottage, Prim Terrace and Prim Haven. This supportive environment helps them to be responsive, to be themselves, to make friends and to feel safe and cared for.

Our specially trained, qualified nursing staff and caregivers assist residents with all their needs, hands-on, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They provide love and attention and make life as comfortable and meaningful as possible in a calm and loving way, because they are passionate about what they do.

Prim Villa has equipped our home with products and solutions that drive healthier outcomes for our residents, and for our care givers. Our specialised mobility aids enable them to take a person-centred approach to essential routines, while promoting a dignified experience for our residents, all while factoring in their safety as caregivers. Our hydrotherapy bath offers hydro massage, hydro sound, and multi-sensory features that enhance the therapeutic benefits of the bathing experience. Our 3 fully automated Nordic Wellness Chairs combine music, tactile stimulation, and a rocking motion to offer a unique and calming multi-sensory experience for our residents that are living with cognitive disorders.
