Day Care At Victoria House

Everyone deserves time out whether you care for a relative or are in need of care yourself, taking a break from your usual routine can do the world of good for a day.

Our day care provides a friendly and stimulating home-away-from-home for people who are still living at home, but who may need some additional support during the day.

We can offer assistance with personal care, bathing or a shower.

We also can provide home cooked meals and day care residents can enjoy our daily activities program.

Victoria House can tailor a day package to your or your loved ones needs.

What Is Day Care?

Day care provides daytime support for individuals who may need help with daily activities, companionship, or a safe, structured routine while their family or carer is at work, running errands, or taking a break.

Visitors can join us for:

  • A full day

  • Half-days

  • A few days a week

  • Occasional drop-ins (subject to booking)

Whatever works best for you and your loved one.

Who Benefits From Day Care?

Day care is ideal for people who:

  • Feel lonely or isolated at home

  • Need support with day-to-day tasks

  • Benefit from social interaction

  • Have memory difficulties or early-stage dementia
