About Carlisle Dementia Centre - Parkfield

Carlisle Dementia Centre supports older people across Cumbria with residential, nursing, dementia, respite and end-of-life care. The service is part of HomeTrust Care, an employee-owned organisation that works with residents and families to create care plans supporting independence, wellbeing and a meaningful daily life.

Daily routines combine meals, activities and rest, with social, creative and physical programmes plus one-to-one support where needed. Residents have access to outdoor and communal spaces subject to safety assessments, and bedrooms are single occupancy, with most having ensuite facilities. Families are encouraged to remain involved through visits, care reviews and updates, while dementia support focuses on familiar routines, identity and life history.

Questions families ask

Can residents have a trial stay before moving into care?

Yes. The pre-admission assessment includes trial stays and respite options, alongside reviews of medical, emotional and social needs.

How are families kept updated about a resident's care?

They provide regular care reviews and updates about health or wellbeing changes, with family meetings, feedback opportunities and a named key worker for each resident.

How do they support residents living with dementia?

They provide calm, person-centred dementia care that respects identity, routines and life history, using familiar faces and consistent routines to support residents.

Can meals be adapted for dementia or swallowing difficulties?

Yes. Nutritionists work with chefs to provide calorie-dense, easy-to-eat meals tailored to residents with dysphagia or dementia-related dietary needs.

How much does Carlisle Dementia Centre - Parkfield cost?
