The World Health Organisation defines health as the ‘state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity’.
Our homes offer quality care for older people that promotes independence alongside professional standards of healthcare, hygiene, nutrition and security.
Each resident has an individual Care Plan, these detail the resident’s needs, likes and dislikes. Care Plans are constantly updated. Respect for privacy and dignity is central to our home’s care philosophy.
A full programme of activities within a pleasant social atmosphere includes trips out are provided daily. Our residents are taken out to enjoy local garden centres, beaches and shops, as well as local attractions.
Exercise can help to improve all aspects of a residents life, including cognitive functioning, physical strength and social interaction.
Staying active is as much about mental stimulation and flexing the mind as it is about keeping the body working. Our care homes provide a programme of ‘pet therapy’ interaction with different animals which help stimulate residents brains, as well as providing additional friendship and companionship.
It’s not only traditional pets that can have a positive effect on care home residents – any animal interaction can bring a smile to people’s faces.
