About Parley Place Care Home
Parley Place Care Home is a care home in Ferndown, Dorset. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, we support people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. One of the things we would encourage any family to look at is what people here actually do between breakfast and bedtime. An activities board is easy to produce. A day with something in it that a particular person cares about takes more thought. We would rather somebody spent the afternoon doing one thing they have always enjoyed than sat through a group session arranged for the sake of having one. So we ask people what they used to do, what they still want to do and what they would rather be left out of, and we plan around that. Some residents want company most of the day, others want their own room and a quiet hour with the radio, and neither is treated as a problem. For those living with dementia, we work from the person's history rather than their diagnosis. Families usually hold the details that explain what settles somebody. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit if you are considering care locally.
