About Monarch Healthcare
The care we provide is directly influenced by the people who live in the home, we have a dedicated team of carers to ensure residents maintain independent lives and live life to the full level of their physical and mental abilities.
We structure our care package by using life histories – past occupation, culture, interests and preferred activities – and encourage working relationships with families and friends, involving them and the local community in all we do.
Carers always listen, befriend and encourage the individual to make choices, in all aspects of their personal care and develop a close relationship by working alongside each resident. We believe the particular aspirations and needs of residents are important and should be considered at all times.

There are currently 750,000 people living with dementia in the UK and by 2025 this is expected to rise to over one million. A third of all dementia sufferers live in care homes and it is reported that 1 in 3 people who live in non-specialist homes have dementia or undiagnosed symptoms.
Dementia is an incurable condition caused by disease of the brain which over time seriously impairs a person’s ability to live independently. Symptoms include severe memory loss, mood fluctuations and personality changes; which can present with serious confusion, agitation or aggression and physical changes including poor mobility, weight loss and sleep deprivation.
In 2009 the government set out a five year strategy “Living Well with Dementia” to improve awareness and provide better access to specialist services, for sufferers and their carers.
Our Butterfly Worker at our homes flitter between our residents creating some one’s wellbeing. Creating opportunities that reflect daily living and occupation. The Butterfly moves freely from one resident to another encouraging short meaningful, person centred activities that stimulate the mind and promote resident’s living with dementia’s wellbeing. Rummage boxes full of interesting items such as hats, shoes, scarves etc, trays of jewellery, dusters and household equipment and comfort items are all part of our approach. A selection of “short interventions,” for example catching the suns reflection on a window or finding the crossword in the morning’s paper.
At Monarch Healthcare we never discriminate against people with dementia, but we do recognise the unique care needs and offer specialist support for the person and their family at our dedicated communities.
