Worthington Lake is a new purpose-built, accredited Dementia care home in Wigan. Set within the beautiful Lancashire countryside, the home is tailored to state-of-the-art dementia care, both in design and culture.
Worthington Lake Care home encourages residents to retain independence through involvement in day to day activities. So, whether it’s access to the secure outdoor sensory spaces or supervised involvement in the kitchen facilities, where residents can prepare food, the staff ensure every resident is free to live life to its fullest.
The extensive range of features and services is what sets Worthington Lake apart. The open-plan central hub provides easy access to a number of areas, such as the tea room, dining room with terrace and private patios. And with hair salon visits, farmers' markets and gardening on the agenda, there is a wide range of activities for residents to enjoy.
Designed and built to offer bespoke and specialised dementia care the 32-bed home will offer dementia care that is truly bespoke. The care home’s layout and design has been guided by the most forward-thinking research in dementia care to allow individuals the freedom and confidence to use all abilities to the fullest extent in a safe, secure and enabling environment.
Key to the overall ethos is the home from home principle. In a layout specifically considered to help those with short-term memory loss, there are no out of bounds areas. Individuals are encouraged to follow a path and create own space - personal identity isn’t left at the front door, it’s encouraged to flourish.
Founded in 1997, Millennium Care UK Ltd is a family-owned care home group specialising in dementia, nursing, residential and respite care.

I am forever grateful to an online social networking service for highlighting this wonderful home to me. The bespoke build design and model of care for dementia puts the house-member at the centre of their own care. All staff demonstrate a genuine commitment and interest in the well being of all. The care given I rate as outstanding. Open visiting facilitates work commitments. Activities, both physical and mental, are engaging for all. I noticed a significant improvement in well-being after one week. What a wonderful model for care. I hope the rest of the World takes note - this is how it should be done. Congratulations to you all - you superstars. Keep up the research and thank you.

My step-mum settled in straight away, which meant a lot to me to see her happy. The staff are all very friendly and come across very professional and nothing is too much trouble for them. I would definitely recommend Worthington Lake Care Home and recommend to have a visit to see for yourself.
I was very impressed with the home, cleanliness, brightness, staff and the great care given to everyone.
