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
Rosemount, care is based around each person's individual needs. Some of our
residents have only modest care requirements,
and may simply enjoy living within a secure and caring environment. Others 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 where
appropriate their families, are involved as far as is practical in
the decisions regarding their care.
Doctors from local practices visit Rosemount 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
Rosemount has TV lounges and a smoking room. Separate
dining areas, where residents can join the company of others at meal times, are
also an important feature of the home. In addition there is a 'reminiscence'
room for use by residents.
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.
Choice 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 areas. The entertainment of
guests and arrangement of small private parties attracts a small extra charge.
Types of Stay
Whilst most of our residents live
permanently at Rosemount, 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.
Admission & 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 individual's
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.
