Person-Centred Care

We involve families in care and activity planning to gain a personal understanding of what really matters to each resident and learn about their favourite pastimes and hobbies. Every resident has an individual care plan which is regularly reviewed to ensure that it meets all medical, physical, emotional and social needs. We encourage social interaction and friendship, and support residents with their individual choices.
