Our Philosophy

At Quantum Care we believe in enabling people to 'live a life' with dementia not just an existence. This means:

• We recognise each person's unique individual life story.
• Who a person is and their particular needs are more important than labels and behaviour.
• Creating meaningful days through activities, outings and community.
• Our 'Best Friends' approach to care means working together and valuing people and their contribution.
• Providing a comfortable and safe environment.

Our 'Dementia Care' approach

D = Detailed Assessment (DART)

E = Each person matters, tailored care.

M= Make life worth living, interest, hobbies, activities and stimulation.

E= External involvement for advice and maintaining life long links.

N= Nurture and encourage staff through support and training.

T= Time for relatives, involve, consult and listen to.

I= Identify trigger points around behaviour and don't label.

A= Adapt our care regimes to changing needs.

All of our homes are accredited by Hertfordshire County Council to provide dementia care, and are registered with the Commission for Social Care Inspection. See link on the left for a full version of the HCC Standards.
