Yes. Day care is available seven days a week, with full or half days including company, activities, a hot meal and help with personal care if needed.

Can someone try a day at the care home first?

Yes. They can arrange a trial half day before a longer stay or move, helping someone experience the home, activities and care.

What should someone bring for a respite stay?

They should bring labelled clothes, toiletries, current medication in its original packaging with a medication list, walking aids and a few personal items to make the room familiar.

Are the care staff trained in dementia care?

Yes. All care staff complete dementia training during induction and receive refresher training when required.

How much does Seaview Haven cost?

The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Seaview Haven for its weekly fee. As a guide, Devon council paid on average £1,043 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
