Welcome to Marian House. We specialise in person-centred dementia care in Sutton Coldfield, creating a nurturing sanctuary where your loved one is safe, understood and cherished for who they are.
Our care is built on a foundation of core promises. This is our philosophy for creating a world that feels manageable, safe and familiar for every resident.
Using life stories, memory boxes and familiar routines to create moments of connection and reduce anxiety.
Fostering a calm, gentle environment with patient communication and reassurance to build trust and security.
Assisting with personal care, mobility and nutrition in a way that is always respectful and dignified.
Understanding that behaviours are a form of communication and responding with patience, expertise, and compassion.
Providing guidance, support and open communication for families, who are an essential part of our care community.
We believe the best dementia care comes from a deep understanding of the individual’s world. Our approach is designed to reduce distress and enhance well-being through three core pillars.
We work with families to create a "Life Story Book" for each resident, detailing their personal history, passions and preferences. This becomes a vital tool for our carers to build trust and tailor activities that resonate.
Our home is dementia-friendly, with clear signage and a secure sensory garden. This provides a safe space for residents to enjoy fresh air and gentle stimulation, proven to reduce agitation and improve mood.
Our Activities Coordinator designs a daily programme of gentle activities like reminiscence therapy, music and baking. The goal is not just to pass the time, but to spark joy and maintain skills
Our skilled and friendly team ensures every respite guest receives the same high standard of care and attention as our long-term residents. We are here to make their stay comfortable, safe and enjoyable.
We know how difficult this feels. You don’t have to navigate it alone. We invite you to call us for a confidential, no-pressure chat about your family’s situation and how we can help.
Navigating this journey brings many questions. We hope these clear answers provide some comfort.
We manage the transition with great care and sensitivity, encouraging family visits and slowly introducing the resident to our team and routines. The Life Story Book is crucial here, helping us build a bond from day one.
Our team is trained to understand that challenging behaviour is often an expression of an unmet need—such as pain, fear, or confusion. We respond with calm, professional de-escalation techniques and work to identify the root cause rather than simply managing the symptom.
Yes. Our goal is to be a forever home. Our care plans are flexible and adapt as a resident’s needs change over time, allowing them to remain in a familiar and loving environment throughout their journe
