Carers, like anyone else, need time off for a number of reasons, such as holidays, sickness, illness recovery time and quite simply to have a well-earned break. As a carer you can have peace of mind knowing that we will take very good care of your responsibilities while you do what you need to do. Respite care may be beneficial after a change in care level or after hospitalisation to allow time for arrangements to be made to manage future care needs.
Respite residents have a wonderful time making new friends and enjoying our home cooked meals.
Our 15 bed Memory Support provides specialised care to positively support residents living with dementia. Activities are tailored to provide specialised programs in a secure environment within the facility by our Montessori trained staff.
Our Memory Support wing has its own day room with access to a secure outdoor area where residents can enjoy a stroll in the garden or assist in maintaining the raised garden beds. We are also blessed to have a interactive Tovertafel sensory table where our residents play games and enjoy music. It is truly a magic table!
The lifestyle program for the memory unit has been specially tailored by our trained staff to meet each residents’ specific needs and abilities. Here residents can enjoy group activities such as singing and exercises, a walk in the secure garden, as well as sensory and individual activities.

Some activities include sing alongs, happy hours, meditation, concerts, exercises, bingo, board games and reading to name a few.

Spiritual needs play a central role of the Lifestyle program. There is a beautiful chapel which can be accessed by residents at any time for a moment of quiet prayer or reflection.
Lifestyle staff can also provide guidance and support to residents and help them to feel valued and respected in their care environment.
The Latvian Aged Care Home endeavours to listen to and act upon the Lifestyle needs of each resident at the facility. The Lifestyle program is robust and ever adapting to changing needs and new ideas.
