Cheriton Care Home

Cheriton Care Home in Dorchester supports elderly residents with a range of healthcare needs including; residential, respite, reablement and dementia care. Round the clock care is provided by our team of dedicated Care Assistants, overseen by our experienced Management Team.

All of our residents have their own bedroom which they are encouraged to make their own. Every bedroom’s front door is a different colour and style, which makes it more recognisable for our residents. Cheriton has a range of room sizes, and some are able to accommodate couples. All rooms come equipped with electric profiling beds and furnishings. Should a new resident wish to bring their own items of furniture then providing they pass health and safety regulations we will do our best to accommodate this.

Here at Cheriton, we offer a wide and varied daily activities programme which changes to make the most of the Great British seasons! Daily activities are planned for both morning and afternoon which take into account the interests of our residents. We also welcome community groups and schoolchildren into our home so residents can stay connected with their local community.

Good nutrition and hydration are an important part of staying well as we age. Cheriton is able to support people with a range of dietary requirements, including specialist diets. Our Home Chefs do their best to tempt even the smallest of appetites and sweet treats are always provided to celebrate special occasions!

Please do give us a ring to organise coming to see Cheriton Care Home and to meet our Home Manager. We would be delighted to spend time finding out about yours or your loved ones care needs and share information on the care we provide.
