Case studies.
Every journey
follows its own path.
When it comes to dementia, every journey and path is different. We explore some of these journeys in our case studies, as we take a look at how dementia impacts not only the person living with it, but all of those in the support network, from carers, families and friends.
Elaine is a client at our specialist young onset dementia home, The Manor at St Catherine’s. In this case study, we take a look at her journey, offering insights from not only Elaine’s perspective, but of her support group too, including her family, loved ones and carers.

Tailored care is central to the way we approach things here at Wellburn, and is core to providing personalised and individualised support to residents.
We recognise, celebrate and respect that our residents and clients all have highly unique needs, preferences, and backgrounds. Our team works together with our residents and their loved ones to design a care plan that they feel comfortable with and gives us the best opportunity to do what we do best.
This highly tailored approach ensures physical, emotional and social needs are met in a holistic manner. Tailored care involves adapting daily routines, activities, and meal plans to suit individual preferences, all of which creates an environment where residents feel valued, respected, and empowered, fostering a sense of belonging and enhancing their overall quality of life.
Tailored care.
Working and collaborating with experts in the field of dementia, ‘Path’ is our transformative programme, designed to cultivate a culture of excellence in dementia care.
Spotting signs early.
The first small signs of dementia are the most important, as they could be an indication of something more serious, so it’s important for families and carers to be aware of any small but noticeable changes.
Detecting these signs sooner rather than later is key to effectively managing symptoms and finding the best treatment and support available.
Let’s take a look at some common symptons and how to spot them…
