Our Home & Community

Our Home provides personal care and administration of medication for our residents who are elderly, including those who have dementia but excluding challenging behaviour, mental illness and alcohol or drug dependency.

The Home does not provide nursing care except when it is in co-operation with the district nursing team.

Activities
Our Activities Co-ordinator focuses on developing a person-centred programme of meaningful activities for each resident to ensure that stimulation is maximised.

Our range of activities is very varied and includes opportunities to participate in reminiscent sessions, playing musical instruments, painting, quizzes, sing songs, trips to the theatre and for shopping, board games, chair-based exercises and more.

We arrange trips out for shopping, church going, pub lunches, theatre visits and trips to places of interest in the local area. The garden area is used extensively for relaxation in the summer months.

Our annual Summer and Christmas Parties are extremely well attended and they present an opportunity for everyone to get together and showcase the Home to residents’ friends and families.
