Becoming a Loveday Member

Every Loveday journey begins by becoming a Member. Loveday Membership provides Members with access to so much more than our exceptional care. Following the initial lifestyle and medical assessments, we craft a tailored programme of therapies, stimulating activities, lifestyle concierge services and the delivery of exceptional, compassionate care. Each and every programme is designed to maintain the richness of our Members’ lives and is perfectly attuned to their personal interests, hobbies and preferences. Nothing is ever too much trouble.

Lifestyle and Clinical Assessment

We take a completely holistic view of each Member, we aim to provide support and service that enables our Members to continue to enjoy life just as they always have. It’s as important to us as it is to you that you continue doing everything you do, from attending the ballet or rugby, to meeting up with the same friend every Tuesday in the same café.

The assessments can be done in one go or over a series of meetings, usually in the Members home. Our aim is to build a detailed picture of each Member’s health and lifestyle needs.

Choosing your care

Once the assessment is done our expert clinical team sit down with you to discuss your care options, from attending the Day Club, a few hours extra help at home, right up to staying at Loveday for a few days or moving in.

They then craft a bespoke plan for you that covers all your care needs and a personalised plan including medical therapies and stimulating activities.

The choice is yours whether you move straight in or start with the Day Club, or come and stay for a short trial to see if it suits you.

Attending the Day Club

If you decide that the Day Club is for you, once a Member you can pop in to any one of our properties for a day of activities, socialising, quiet relaxing in the library, and of course a wonderful lunch. We welcome friends and family to join you.

The Mermaid

A little story

Barbara always relished her early morning dips at the Serpentine Swimming Club. Such was her love of the water that she earned the nickname, ‘The Mermaid’. But as she became frailer and showing signs of dementia, her family thought her swimming days were over, especially as most swimming pools can be disorientating for people living with dementia. But since Barbara has become a Member at Loveday, we found a dementia-friendly pool nearby, that we hire especially so that Barbara can take the plunge with one of our staff whenever she wants.

Loveday. Care beyond compare.
