We believe in making Newport Hills Adult Family Home
a place to live one’s life to the fullest, not a place to wait for
life’s end. The emphasis of our care is aimed at supporting the
remaining functions of the person with Dementia. We see ourselves
as therapeutic agents. The way we provide our care is the way we impact
the health of the person with Dementia, and this makes all the
difference in the world. We believe in involving the person with
Dementia into projects; be it folding laundry, drying dishes, asking
their advice, for that to us is showing respect and that’s the way to
increase that person’s self esteem. The person with Dementia is a
unique and special human being. This person is experiencing
difficulties and great challenges, and deserves understanding,
compassionate and loving care.
We are caring, dedicated, and
patient caregivers and have a sense of humor, all which are very
important in dealing with all the problems that arise. This and
enjoying Dementia care help us in supporting people as they loose
functioning abilities.
