The opening of Trembaths in 1989, together with Westbury in Newport Pagnell, launched MHA into a new era of care. By offering full nursing care in Letchworth, the organisation was setting out to meet the requirements of an increasing number of older people with advancing physical and mental care needs.
In 2003, dementia specialist care was introduced. Through "awareness days", the home has shared its knowledge with relatives and the public, explaining the effects of dementia and how special care can improve the quality of life.
