The modern residential care home offers a wide array of facilities and benefits that enhance the quality of life for residents and provide peace of mind for their families.
One of the primary benefits of residential care is the access to professional healthcare teams. At Hazel End we employ trained professionals who provide round-the-clock care, ensuring that our residents' medical, physical, and emotional needs are met with expertise and compassion.
Our home is purpose built and has been designed with safety and comfort in mind, we have secure entrances, emergency response systems, and a team that undertake regular training in all areas of care. We provide a safe environment that reduces the risk of accidents whilst providing our residents with the freedom to enjoy the many benefits of their home independently. And there is much to enjoy, Hazel End boasts facilities such as a library, garden room, cinema and tearoom, the only bar in town where the drinks are free, and a complimentary hairdressing and beauty salon.
Isolation and loneliness can have detrimental effects on mental and emotional well-being. To ensure that our residents never have to experience loneliness we offer a vibrant social environment where they can interact with peers, participate in group activities, and form meaningful friendships. Regular social engagement is encouraged as it has been proven to improve cognitive function, reduce stress, and contribute to a sense of belonging, all things that are essential for maintaining good mental health.
We understand that every individual is unique, with specific needs and preferences. We tailor care plans to accommodate residents' requirements, ensuring that they receive the care that is right for them. From medication management to dietary preferences and mobility assistance, residents benefit from individualised care that promotes their overall health and happiness.
Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining good health, especially for the elderly and individuals with specific dietary requirements. Our chef is passionate about providing well-balanced, nutritious meals that not only cater to every need but offer choice, and the opportunity to experience new things. Our menus are resident driven with their input dictating the food options.
In addition to optimum nutrition, we offer wellness programs, including exercise classes, recreational activities, and therapy sessions. We enjoy interacting with the local community and doing our bit to make a difference for our neighbours. We host events, we visit local schools, and we ensure that our residents can continue to enjoy hobbies and pastimes. Our activity schedule includes lots of outdoor activities, such as our walking group which is very popular with residents and helps to promote physical fitness and overall vitality.
Hazel End offers safety, security, and friendship to all who live here, and this care not only benefits our residents but also provides relief for family members. Caring for a loved one can be challenging, and can often lead to strained relationships, feelings of exhaustion, guilt, and worry. Knowing that their loved ones are in a safe and supportive environment allows our families to focus on their own well-being, reduce stress, and maintain a healthier work-life balance. This enables them to enjoy quality time spent with their loved one, it offers them the peace of mind that their loved ones are receiving the best possible care and restores relationship dynamics.
We consider our home to be a haven of comfort, full of love and laughter. It is a community of like-minded people enjoying their lives together. Our residents are well looked after, they are pampered, they eat well, they socialise and take part in a variety of activities, they are treated as individuals, they are heard but most of all, they are happy.
