Frequently asked questions
What is the capacity of the facility in terms of the number of beds?
Our registered bed capacity is 24.
Could you please provide information on the cost and the inclusions covered by the costs?
Our pricing structure is tailored to the individual needs of our residents. For detailed information regarding costs and inclusions, we kindly request that you contact us directly to arrange a meeting where we can discuss this matter in depth with you or your family.
Do you accommodate residents with social or health funding?
We accept residents with private, social, and health funding options and are happy to explore the available choices with you.
Could you elaborate on the distinction between a care home and a nursing home?
Residents in a residential care home require assistance with personal care tasks and seek relief from daily responsibilities such as cleaning and cooking. In contrast, residents in a nursing home have diverse medical requirements that necessitate round-the-clock medical care provided by nurses. As a nursing home, we ensure the presence of a nurse on duty throughout each 24-hour shift.
What is the staff-to-resident ratio at your facility?
We maintain a minimum staffing level of 5 employees during the day, excluding one-to-one care, and 3 staff members during nighttime hours. Additionally, we have a dedicated cook, cleaner, activities coordinator, and two registered managers on our team.
Could you provide information on visitation hours at your facility?
We maintain an open-door policy for visitors starting from 10:30 am onwards. To ensure a peaceful environment, we kindly request that visitors avoid the mealtime hours of 12-1 pm and 5-6 pm whenever possible, unless they are assisting with meal-related activities.
What does the care plan entail at your facility?
We have recently transitioned from a paper-based care planning system to a digital platform. Our staff members are available to thoroughly discuss and review care plans with you or your loved one on a regular basis, making adjustments as needed.
Are pet visitations permitted at your facility?
We warmly welcome pet visitations, provided that the animals are well-behaved and leashed.
Do you offer laundry services at the nursing home?
Laundry services are provided; however, please note that the facility does not assume responsibility for any lost or damaged clothing items.
Our facility boasts two gardens!
The front garden provides a serene setting ideal for afternoon tea and watching the world go by. Additionally, our expansive rear garden offers a tranquil oasis, perfect for relaxation, quiet contemplation or enjoying a peaceful nap.
