Salon
Promoting Dignity, Identity & Wellbeing Through Personal Care
At Park View Care Home, we understand that how we look can have a profound impact on how we feel — especially for people living with dementia and older adults.
That’s why we have created a dedicated Salon within the home — a welcoming, professional space where residents can enjoy regular hairdressing, grooming, and beauty treatments in a warm, supportive environment.
For many of our residents, the Salon is not just about appearance — it’s about dignity, identity, confidence, and a vital sense of self.
Designed for Comfort & Confidence
The Salon has been carefully designed to provide a safe, enjoyable experience for all residents. Features include:
Professional hairdressing station — for cuts, styling, and colouring
Nail care and grooming services — including manicures and hand treatments
Comfortable seating — designed for ease of access and relaxation
Warm, inviting décor — creating a familiar, comforting environment
Calming background music — to enhance relaxation during treatments
Dementia-friendly layout — clear signage, uncluttered space, supportive staff
All treatments are provided with sensitivity to each resident’s individual preferences, needs, and life history.
Why Personal Care Matters in Dementia & Elderly Care
The Salon plays an important role in supporting:
✅ Dignity and self-esteem — helping residents feel good about themselves
✅ Identity — maintaining personal style and sense of individuality
✅ Emotional wellbeing — promoting relaxation and a positive mood
✅ Social interaction — providing enjoyable conversation and engagement
✅ Routine and normality — helping residents maintain familiar life patterns
For residents living with dementia, regular visits to the Salon can also provide important cues for time and season — supporting orientation and wellbeing.
Personalised Care & Meaningful Moments
Our Salon staff take great pride in delivering person-centred care — learning about each resident’s personal preferences, past routines, and favourite styles.
This helps to ensure that every visit feels both personal and enjoyable.
Many residents look forward to their Salon appointments — whether for a fresh haircut, a special style for an occasion, or a simple pampering session. The experience provides an important opportunity for positive touch, one-to-one engagement, and sensory stimulation — all vital elements of dementia care.
A Space for Family & Celebration
Families are welcome to accompany their loved ones to the Salon — creating relaxed, shared moments that many relatives find deeply rewarding.
The Salon is also an important part of special occasions at Park View — helping residents look and feel their best for birthdays, seasonal events, and family gatherings.
An Integral Part of Our Activities-Based Home
The Salon reflects Park View’s wider activities-based, open-plan care model — where opportunities for dignity, choice, and joyful engagement are woven into daily life.
For us, every person deserves to feel valued, confident, and cared for — and our Salon plays a vital role in delivering on that commitment.
