Our registered nurses and carers are trained to ensure
that the privacy, dignity and choice of each resident is
respected.
Committed to quality nursing and residential care...
Care
At Bracknell Care Home, care is based around
each person's individual needs. Our residents need 24 hour nursing assistance,
however, whatever the need, care is delivered with patience, kindness and
understanding.
The care plan for each resident is exclusive, and
aimed at promoting health and independence. Residents and whereappropriate their
families, are involved as far as is practical in the decisions regarding their
care.
Doctors from local practices visit
the home on a regular basis or by individual appointment. Residents may choose
to retain their own family GP, alternatively we can make the necessary
introduction to a new practice.
We very
much recognise the importance of personal, individual and resident focused care.
To achieve this, good communication between all members of the care team, be
they nurses, carers, relatives or doctors is essential.
Facilities
Bracknell Care Home has a lounge/dining room, with TV and video, where
residents can enjoy the company of others.
The home is attended by an experienced hair stylist,
a qualified chiropodist and a range of complementary therapies can be arranged
to suit individual requirement. All the laundry for our residents is undertaken
by the home.
A varied programme of
activities also takes place in the home for the benefit of
residents.
Visitors are welcome
at any time and in addition all our facilities are extended to close friends and
family.
Coice of Food
Our Chef
prepares a wide range of home cooked food based upon traditional cooking using
fresh produce. Special diets are catered for and daily choices are available.
Meals are served to suit the convenience of residents and can be served in the
privacy of bedrooms or at the table in our dining room.
Type of Stay
Whilst most of our residents
live permanently at the home, there is a regular number of returning guests who
choose to stay with us for shorter periods of days or weeks. Many people find a
break from their own home an essential tonic. Others may choose to rest with us
following a period of poorer health and recuperate at the home.
We fully appreciate the stress
associated with leaving home to live in a new location, and are happy to accept
new residents for an agreed trial period at the end of which there would be no
further obligation.
Admissions &
Fees
Prior to admission, each new resident is encouraged to visit
the home to satisfy themselves that the environment and ambience is to their
liking. Our Home Manager will also wish
to discuss the personal preferences
of each prospective resident and whatever care needs may be required. This is
essential to confirm that we are able to provide the correct environment for
each individual.
The fees
for care are dependent upon the choice of room available and the individuals requirements and needs.
Arrangements for the payment of fees will be agreed with residents prior to
admission.
Philosophy of Care
We are committed to providing the highest possible
standards of care.
Residents will be treated as individuals and cared
for with respect and dignity within a safe, comfortable and homely environment
which provides stimulation and encourages
independence where
appropriate.
For further information and
to arrange a visit, please contact the Home Manager at any time.
