Your studio
A day shaped around each resident
Families often worry that a move will take away the things that make the person they love who they are. Here, the day is shaped around each resident: their routines, what they enjoy and the pace that feels right.
Knowing what someone enjoys helps the day feel more familiar. The team learns each resident’s habits and interests, then adapts activities and support to their abilities and care needs. There is time to take part and time to rest.

Our story
A lifetime of stories. A place to belong.
Saga began with a family’s experience of care. When Chris Coulter’s father, Jack, was living with dementia, his care fell short of what he deserved. Chris founded Saga with a commitment to knowing each resident as a person: their needs, their routines and the life they want to keep living.
At Barton House, a favorite song or a familiar routine helps the team get to know the person they are caring for.
