Wentworth Court specialises in dementia nursing care tailored to suit the needs of the individual. We offer long-term residential care for those who need daily assistance or shorter-term respite and day care to enable carers to take breaks while their relatives benefit from the excellent care and facilities offered at Wentworth Court.
Taking a holistic approach
Our dementia strategy underpins our ethos of holistic, person-centred care, for residents with all types of dementia diagnosis and at all stages of their dementia journey.
Keeping up-to-date with best practice
We take a dynamic, adaptive approach – regularly evaluating the support we provide against emerging best practice, to ensure that our residents benefit from the most up-to-date thinking on dementia care.
We engage with programmes developed by experts at organisations including the Alzheimer’s Society, Bradford University and Stirling University. See our training page for more information on how we invest in our team.
Involving families
We work closely with our residents and their families to understand changing and complex individual needs. Regular catch-ups with residents’ families and monthly group family meetings are part of our responsive culture, ensuring we provide the best possible care for loved ones.
Harnessing technology
Using the latest electronic care planning technology, we can access, review and evaluate individual care plans and actions in real time and ensure that everyone is on the ‘same page’.

By nursing residents in familiar surroundings, we can reduce stress which can aid recovery.
Understanding mental health
Through our commitment to meeting the social, physical, mental and spiritual needs of each resident and our investment in dementia-specialist training, we can use positive techniques to calm challenging behaviour and reduce the anxiety that is so often associated with dementia.
It is not uncommon for residents to have psychiatric medications reviewed and reduced once they are settled at Wentworth Court.
Managed by First Cheltenham Ltd, we are an independent home, which enables us to be more responsive and innovative in our approach to providing high-quality care.
Our values are clear from the moment you step through our doors and we are proud to have created an environment where residents feel safe, secure and valued.
Our latest CQC report from May 2020 agrees that we are offering a high standard of care. We are delighted to be rated ‘outstanding’ for responsiveness and ‘good’ in all other categories, meeting the criteria of being:
“People and their relatives told us care and nursing staff were kind, caring and compassionate. Staff were attentive to people’s needs and when people were anxious, care staff took time to reassure them and
promote their wellbeing. People were treated with dignity and respect.”
CQC report May 2020
"On behalf of all our family we send you our heartfelt sincere thanks and gratitude for the exceptional carer every one of you provided for dad. Thank You is not really a big enough word to describe the dedication and level of care all of you demonstrate daily.” "
