Residents can benefit from:

• Surrounding grounds featuring a scented garden, an orchard, patios and gazebos, and an area where we keep chickens.

• Residents can enjoy a game of pool or billiards in the billiard room or enjoy a film on our large cinema screen.

• A brand new Dementia House with a sensory space for rest and relaxation for those who need nursing dementia care. Subject to assessment, a resident that requires nursing dementia care will have a diagnosis of dementia as well as physical nursing needs.

• We host regular activities from arts and crafts classes, cooking and baking sessions to visits from local schoolchildren, the Scouts, Diddi Dancers and the Air Cadets.

• Our minibus supports residents to stay connected with their communities, from trips to the city centre to visits to museums, gardens and other areas of interest.

Our nursing area is managed by a Registered Nurse, who leads a team of eight care staff during the day and three at night.

Most of our care staff have achieved, or are working towards an NVQ/QCF in Health and Social Care. A Clinical Lead Nurse is also available and oversees the safe and effective care delivered by our staff in the residential and nursing areas of our Home.

We have a 24-hour nurse call system installed in all our residents’ rooms. Some of the residents have a personal alarm to carry, so they can call for assistance if required.

We have two dedicated Activities Coordinators who organise a variety of activities as well as trips outside of the Home, to support our residents’ health and wellbeing.

We also have fluent Polish, Spanish and Nepalese speakers.

Please note that the level of care each person receives will depend on their individual needs. This is continuously monitored and reviewed to ensure each person receives the right level of care. Staffing levels may be adjusted in different areas of the Home to support the level of care required by residents at any particular point in time.
