About Whitebourne
Whitebourne is a residential care home in Camberley supporting older people, including those living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Moving into a care home is a considerable change, and the first weeks shape everything that follows. We spend time learning about a person before and after they arrive. What work they did. Who matters to them. What they like to eat and when they prefer to wake. What unsettles them, and what settles it again. None of that comes off an assessment form. It comes from sitting down with somebody and their family and actually asking. Dementia care here runs on constants. Familiar faces, a predictable shape to the day, and staff who understand that how a moment feels outlasts whether it is remembered. Where somebody lives with a mental health condition, we work alongside community teams so that support stays joined up and a difficult stretch is met with patience. Respite stays give a family carer a genuine break with proper support in place. Visitors are welcome. Please come on an ordinary day and see the home as it really is.
