Finding the right care home for a loved one can be a daunting task. At Avante Care & Support we can give you peace of mind that during this challenging time you are choosing a safe, welcoming and caring environment at our care homes.
You may be aware that alongside the necessary measures to protect residents and staff, there is a temporary requirement for all care homes to care for new admissions in isolation, to help with this we have arranged for some additional comforts for all new residents to enjoy, all provided at no extra cost.
At Avante we will ensure that you are able to stay in close contact with scheduled video calls and scheduled visits, and in addition, if your loved one moves into any one of our care homes, we would like to offer you the first night stay free.
COVID-19 Checklist for Choosing a Care Home
5 questions for residents, families, friends and carers to ask
Finding the right Care Home can feel overwhelming at any time. The COVID-19 pandemic means that care homes have had to learn to do things differently, like every household in the country. The focus remains to provide high quality care, with residents needs and wellbeing at the centre of everything. You need to know the extra measures a home has in place so that you can be reassured that the health and wellbeing of the person receiving care is top priority. This short guide is here to help you think about what you need to know and the questions you might ask on your own behalf, or for someone else you are acting for, when thinking about a choice of home during COVID-19.
At Northbourne Court we work to create a welcoming atmosphere in which residents enjoy activities, go on outings and make friends with other residents and staff. At the heart of our home is our Philosophy of Care, the Eden Alternative, where staff encourage social interaction, engagement and work towards the eradication of loneliness and boredom.
24-hour care and support is provided for people living with dementia, where our team of qualified and attentive staff focus on the individual needs of the residents.
The modern design provides well equipped, bright en-suite bedrooms to support person centred care. Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms and if they wish, to bring any small items of furniture from home.
Northbourne Court has a beauty salon which is a perfect place for a little pampering and relaxation. Also located at Northbourne Court is The Christie Day Care Centre, providing a safe, bright, relaxing and calm atmosphere for people living with dementia. Other facilities include the Piazza bar and cafe, providing a meeting place to enjoy a drink or a light lunch with family and friends.
Residents can visit the pretty courtyard gardens to while away a peaceful afternoon, or join in with the daily programme of activities. The minibus also gives residents the opportunity for day trips out to one of the many local places of interest.
The home provides a safe, warm and friendly environment with support for daily tasks such as washing, cleaning and laundry. Northbourne Court delivers a respite care service allowing a crucial break for carers, for just a few hours or for several weeks. This offers family carers the chance to go on holiday or simply have some well-earned time off.
