Raising Standards
Shared Activities Program: Enriching Lives Across Both Sites
​
Both our residential and nursing sites benefit from a vibrant, shared activities program, totaling 82 hours per week across the two buildings. This includes a dedicated activities coordinator and two assistants, with two staff attending for three days and at least one every day, averaging nearly 12 hours of active engagement daily. From music and crafts to gentle exercise and social events, these tailored programs spark joy and connection for all 35 residents.​
​
Shared Services, Singular Care
​
Our two sites operate as a cohesive community, with shared management, cooking, and housekeeping services ensuring consistency and quality. Fresh, home-cooked meals complement our exceptional care, creating a warm, welcoming home for all residents. By exceeding the UK average of 3.4 hours of one-to-one care—delivering ~5 hours at our residential site and ~4.96 hours at our nursing site—we strive to provide dignified care for our residents and peace of mind to their families.
​
Embracing Technology
​
We believe that technology should support proper care, not replace it. We have adopted the latest care management software (Carevision) and nurse call systems (Arquella) as part of our commitment to providing peace of mind; improved care planning, note taking, reporting and auditing helps transparency and communication.
The buildings have complete superfast wifi so our residents and families can stay in touch remotely too.
