A Range of Care Options
We understand the difficulties - and heartache - involved in deciding to seek care outside the home for a loved one. Our approach is to help carers and families reach a decision most suited to their personal circumstances.
DAY CARE
If you are employed outside the home, or simply need some personal time, Day Care can be a satisfactory option
- Hours are 8.30 a.m. - 6.30 p.m. but we can meet individual needs
- Any combination of days is possible
- Activities programme
- Breakfast, lunch and evening meal included, plus morning & afternoon tea
- Consultant Psychiatrist visits daily
- Nursing assistance with personal hygiene
- Hairdressing and chiropody services regularly
- Pastoral care
HOLIDAY/WEEKEND CARE
Annual holidays or unexpected events can often present a near crisis situation and we can step in on an urgent basis, if needed.
LONG TERM CARE
When families can no longer cope at home and if the patient is still mobile, the Care Centre can take over on a long term basis. If patients are immobile and require intensive nursing care, this is provided in Highfield Hospital, Hampstead Hospital and the High Dependency Unit.
