Dementia Care in Farnham Common
Signature at Farnham Common offers dedicated communities for residents living with dementia. As a brand-new purpose-built home, we have designed the accommodation with between 11 – 14 studio apartments within each community.
This helps our residents feel at home, without overstimulation from a large number of residents in the same environment. This enables our specialist dementia care teams to get to know the residents very well and ensure they feel at ease within their own space.
Each suite has been specifically designed for those living with dementia, The décor is calm, relaxing and gives a warm family feel.
Residents are encouraged to personalise their room bringing items they are familiar with from their own home such as family photos, a favourite chair, dressing table or book shelf, we work with families to ensure that each resident’s room is perfect for them in comfort, design and layout enabling independence.
Each studio has its own en-suite wet room with sensor controlled lighting and special wayfinding features as well as a 43” TV.

Read what our residents’ relatives have to say about our dementia care:
“I have been closely involved in my wife’s care of her elderly mother. In moving her mother from home care, to the high-order care provided by Signature at Farnham Common, has provided ease of mind for her. She knows that whatever the path going forward, her mother is in extremely professional and caring hands. This not only provides relief to her but to the whole of her family who care greatly for their grandmother and great-grandmother.” – Review from a son-in-law of a resident, submitted on carehome.co.uk
FACILITIES IN OUR COMMUNITIES

We pride ourselves on having a safe and homely environment with plenty of quiet places for our residents to relax and unwind.

What’s more, residents living within these communities benefit from private access to a beautiful open plan dining room with lounge, kitchen, an activities area and outdoor terrace. There is also an accessible spa bathroom. Residents may also wish to visit the main communal areas on the ground floor which include a cinema, café, pub and outdoor gardens.
HOW WE CARE FOR YOUR LOVED ONE LIVING WITH DEMENTIA
We understand that each resident living with dementia is different. We dedicate time to each resident getting to know each individual on a personal basis from day one, this includes understanding as much as we can about each resident including; family life, background, likes dislikes and important life events.
Spending this valuable time with our residents enables us to create a tailored care plan and bespoke activities programme specifically for each individual, making the most of their capabilities and empowering independence. Care plans are updated on a daily basis and adapted as residents’ interests, capabilities and needs change.
As a registered nursing home, we can look after residents throughout their dementia journey. With a dementia care team on site 24 hours a day, you can have the peace of mind that you loved one has everything they may need all in one place!
