Personal Care and Support
Croft Avenue’s Home Manager makes sure that all Residents receive the kindest possible care. Our extensively trained team will deliver all the nursing, specialist care and support services that your loved one requires. Personalised care plans consider not only medical, personal and dietary needs, but also the individual’s likes and dislikes, religious preferences, and suggestions from family members that might make their stay with us that little bit more enjoyable.
Living with us
With sitting rooms, space for Residents to pursue their hobbies and interests and a lovely dining room, Croft Avenue has a host of places in which to relax, dine, exercise, socialise and be creative. The pretty landscaped garden and patio is the perfect spot to spend time with friends and family, and is happily looked after by some of our Residents. The bright, comfortable bedrooms and living areas are all easily accessible by wheelchair.
The home’s caring team has created a family atmosphere, encouraging everyone to eat and celebrate special occasions together. Residents are invited to decorate their rooms with small items of their own furniture and treasured belongings so that it feels just like home. Daily life is thoughtfully designed to support mind, body and soul.
Health Care
A hairdresser visits the home every week and a private chiropodist once every 4-6 weeks, or on request. The home also provides all community health services, including complementary therapies, for example, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, community nursing, dentist, optician etc, in line with personal needs.
Our care staff are trained in the safe handling of all medication prescribed or used by the resident; with the resident being given the opportunity to be responsible for their own medication.
Social Activities
The carers and Residents at Croft Avenue enjoy playing an important part in their local community. The home encourages an atmosphere of fun and inclusion and runs a weekly programme of events, which includes talks and demonstrations from local people willing to share their knowledge and talents. Performers from the area regularly visit and entertain Residents with songs, sketches, singing and dancing, and members of neighbourhood groups, volunteers and other locals often drop in for a cup of tea and a chat.
