Our Reconnect Community!
Riverdale Care Home in Chesterfield has its very own Reconnect Community, offering specialist care for people living with dementia.
Designed to help residents remain as independent as possible, our Reconnect communities include everything you'd typically find in your home; such as laundry rooms, kitchens and cosy living rooms. We've also included areas entirely dedicated to hobbies like painting, sewing, gardening and DIY, so residents can continue enjoying their interests in a safe and friendly environment.
With a team of dementia-specialist colleagues already in place, residents staying in our Reconnect Community are supported with their physical, mental and emotional needs, including medication distribution, pain management and general wellbeing. Our Reconnect community within Riverdale Care Home has a higher ratio of carers, nurses and support workers; all of which have training in dementia care. As part of our Dementia Promise, colleagues receive extensive guidance in care for all types of dementia, includes vascular-dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

“Lovely caring staff and management are always there to listen and help and I am kept informed of any issues promptly. Mum's individual needs are catered for e.g. washing clothes in her own powder. The residents are entertained on a very regular basis by lovely activity coordinators.
Birthdays and special occasions are celebrated and the residents are all made to feel special and at home. The home has recently been renovated inside making a clean, fresh and modern home for everyone to enjoy. Thank you everyone at Riverdale!”
