Our Lifestyle Team works tirelessly to create a diverse and engaging weekly schedule of activities, trips and events for our residents to enjoy. Whether it’s engaging in creative tasks or tapping their feet to the music of a live band, we cherish the joy residents experience. We also understand that relaxation and personal hobbies are equally important. Residents are encouraged to pursue their own interests and enjoy their preferred activities at their own pace.
Our aim is to create an environment where residents feel comfortable, content and empowered to live life on their own terms. Meeting wellbeing requirements is just as important as taking care of health needs and at Dalgety Bay, we make it our priority to ensure their comfort and happiness.

Our residential care service provides a welcoming environment where residents can truly make our home their own, continuing with their daily routines while benefiting from the wide range of services and amenities available on-site.
By choosing residential care, our residents have the opportunity to live within a group setting rather than on their own. This enables them to engage in daily activities and socialise with fellow residents, fostering a sense of community and companionship. Our dedicated staff is always ready to assist whenever needed, ensuring that residents receive the necessary support they need to live a satisfying way of life.
Dementia is a progressive condition that impacts various cognitive functions, such as speech, movements, memory and behaviour. Within our dementia-friendly care home, we provide the necessary care and attention to ensure that people living with dementia can be happy in their environment and engage in their favourite activities. By fostering a dementia-friendly atmosphere, we strive to enhance their quality of life and enable them to live with dignity, respect and a sense of purpose.
Within our Care Home in Fife, our primary aim is to support our residents in preserving their sense of identity and independence for as long as possible. We understand that each person living with dementia is unique, and their needs may evolve as the condition progresses. Therefore, at Dalgety Bay, we conduct regular reassessments to adapt our care approach accordingly, ensuring that every resident receives personalised care and appropriate support.
Our Care Home in Fife provides compassionate nursing care, catering to individuals who require around-the-clock medical and personal care. Our highly skilled nursing staff are qualified to administer medication, manage tube feeding, assist those with physical disabilities and provide comprehensive personal care to residents with long-term illnesses and health conditions.
Our top priority is ensuring that our residents experience comfortable and fulfilling lives. We understand the importance of maintaining a vibrant and engaging environment, which is why we offer a wide range of entertainment and activities for all residents to enjoy, regardless of the challenges they may be dealing with. We welcome family and friends to visit their loved ones at any time, ensuring that they can continue creating cherished memories together.
Respite Care is a type of short-term care offered for a few weeks or months. If someone has had a fall, is recovering from an illness or needs a break from caring for someone at home, this type of care would be most suitable. Dalgety Bay is here to provide the care you require for as long as you need, until you feel ready to return to your daily routine.
It is a great option for future residents who are looking to move into our home but would like a trial stay before deciding on whether it’s the right care home. Respite care is a good way of getting familiar with a care home environment before the long-term commitment.
