Meet The Manager
Louise Damen is Manager at Seabourne House Care Home.
Welcome to Seabourne House – a warm and comforting care home for those at any stage of dementia. Situated in one of Bournemouth’s quiet residential suburbs, it’s only a short stroll from the town centre and the golden sands of Southbourne beach.
From the second your loved one steps through the door, they’ll feel right at home. Our carers are specially trained to support those with dementia, providing a high level of care while helping them maintain their independence.
We don’t believe in a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every person is different, which is why the care we provide is tailored to each individual’s specific needs and preferences. We honour any special requests and strive to provide each person with the best quality of life we can.
On top of Seabourne House’s excellent location, the home is equipped with a range of fantastic facilities. Each room and fixture is designed to empower the people under our care to live their life as independently as possible.

Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.
