Nursing
Care
The home has been established
for many years and enjoys an enviable reputation for nursing
care, which is provided for elderly, medical, post-operative
and convalescent residents. The accent is on providing a
warm and homely environment and nursing staff are carefully
selected to ensure the well-being of residents.
There is an
R.G.N. on the premises at all times.
General
Comforts
The
park area of the Spa town of Buxton is renowned for its status
as a sought after residential area. The grounds of
the home are spacious and colourful, and residents are encouraged
to enjoy them as much as possible. The rear of the property
overlooks the local cricket ground and the nearby park affords
easy walking for ambulant residents.
Visitors
Family and friends are welcome to visit at any time. Residents
can entertain visitors in their own room or may prefer to
chat over a cup of tea or coffee in our secluded lounges.
Laundry/hairdressing/chiropody
All personal laundry and ironing is carried out on the premises.
A hairdresser visits weekly and appointments can be made.
If he or she already has a hairdresser who is willing to
continue, he or she will be welcome. Alternatively, residents
may prefer a member of staff to attend to their hair, and
this can also be arranged. Chiropodists visit the home on
a regular basis and appointments can be made if required.
General Practitioner/Occupational therapist
Residents
will be always able to retain their own GP, where this is
not possible, a choice will be offered from the list of the
homes’ doctors.
There are also weekly occupational therapy visits.
Telephone
There is a telephone available for residents use.
Newspapers and Magazines
Arrangements can be made with local newsagents for residents
to have newspapers and magazines delivered for our residents.
Social Activities
The residents will be invited to join in the many social and
recreational activities within the home. We arrange sing-alongs,
quiz nights, and bingo. All activities are optional and residents
may relax in a lounge or the privacy of their own home.
