When picking a care home for a loved-one with dementia, it’s best to look for a safe and secure setting, where qualified staff can help them maintain their independence.
Dementia is a condition that can lead to someone having accidents and wandering so they can get lost. Our care home near Malborough is designed to help keep residents safe while giving them a ‘home-from-home’ environment. People with dementia benefit from a care home which has a simple, familiar environment.
Frequent changes to a layout or decor can cause further confusion and disorientation. Our NVQ qualified staff understand this condition and provide a setting where colour plays a big role, along with murals which help to stir lost memories.
Clear and visible signs have been shown to help those with dementia to orientate themselves, and colour can play a big part in this. Memory aids are crucial for helping someone to have a daily schedule and trigger positive memories.

Review from A V (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 March 2024
My mother was resident at Seahorses for approximately two years. We were placed here by the hospital, as homes in Swindon were full. Any doubts I had about the home's suitability were quickly allayed. Mum soon settled into Seahorses and enjoyed the company of other residents, she especially loved the meals, which were excellent. Unfortunately, Mum caught Covid, but under staff care she pulled through. Mum's needs changed and she moved upstairs to a lovely room overlooking trees. The bright, warm and quiet accommodation was just right for her and family visiting at any time of the day always found her well, clean and with food and drink adapted to her needs. This week she was put on end-of-life care and I was grateful to the staff, who continued to show her care and deep affection. Thank you Seahorses for supporting Mum at the end of her long and fulfilling life.
Review from Kai V (Son-in-law of Resident) published on 29 March 2024
Seahorses was just the care home environment we were seeking; relatively small scale, friendly, personable family atmosphere. Every time we visited Seahorses the staff were so welcoming, friendly and reassuring. My mother-in-law was very much at home in the relaxed and caring environment created by the wonderful team.
Review from Paul P (Son of Resident) published on 29 March 2024
Very pleased with the care my Mum has received from day one. The home is small in comparison to some of the others we viewed but the service is more personal. The staff all know my Mum, they know her personality, what she likes and what she doesn’t. The staff are also fantastic with us (the family) always very friendly and communication is excellent. Would highly recommend it.
