Registered to provide care for 25 people over the age of 65 on a permanent or short term basis.
At Half Acre House we provide care and support for up to 25 people over the age of 65 on a permanent or a short-term basis. Our team are competently trained in all aspects of providing care. We encourage personal and professional development at all times.
We have members of the team who specialise in areas such as Dementia, Oral Care, Medication, Person Centered Care Planning, Safeguarding, Moving and Handling, Nutrition and Hydration.
We believe to be able to care and support someone we need to know it all, from their medical history to their non-negotiables and likes and dislikes. To do this, we develop Care Plans inclusive with the individual and their family. This person-centered approach means that our residents retain a feeling of control over how they live, by always being involved in decisions about their day-to-day lives.
Our Catering team provide a wholesome, balanced diet with a varied menu where resident feedback is the main aspect of developing and/or changing our menus. We believe mealtimes are not just for eating, they are a large social aspect where we try to provide an enjoyable dining experience.
Our ethos.
As our home provides Residential Care, we believe it takes a holistic approach, so we work in partnership with external NHS healthcare providers such as Own GP (If possible), District Nursing Teams, Physiotherapists (NHS or Private), Dieticians, Dentists, Opticians, Speech and Language Therapists which are inclusive to the service, we also provide the following chargeable services such as Podiatry and Hairdressing.
We have very good community links and provide services such as Religious/Spiritual services, armchair exercise, local entertainers, visits from and to local schools and nurseries.
