Being a full-time carer for someone can be challenging, both emotionally and physically. Respite care allows a carer to take a break or a holiday while knowing that the person they look after is well taken care of. Beverley Grange offers flexible respite care whenever required.
Like respite care, convalescent care is designed to be short term, although it may last for several weeks or months. It’s ideal for someone coming out of hospital who needs time to recover before going back home. Beverley Grange offers convalescent care for as long as you require it.
Not all care homes offer nursing. A home offering nursing care should provide 24-hour assistance from qualified nurses, as well as more general care. As our name suggests, Beverley Grange Nursing Home offers full nursing care. At least one full-time nurse is always on duty, 24/7.
This is the most common type of care for those who live in a care home. They typically need to be somewhere where they can get extra day-to-day support. For example, it could involve help with bathing and dressing, and other everyday tasks.
Care should always be flexible, allowing residents as much independence as possible, but always mindful of changing needs. Beverley Grange offers excellent residential care by qualified and vetted staff.
Assisted living can take all sorts of forms, from regular visits to those living at home, to drop in daycare. But it generally refers to those who live in their own flat and are largely able to look after themselves, but need access to care, as well as emergency help on hand.
At Beverley Grange we have six bungalows where individuals or couples can enjoy assisted living, with access to the main care home and all our amenities and services.
A home offering dementia care is designed to look after people with dementia, making them feel comfortable and safe. Some, although not all, have qualified nurses with dementia training.
Beverley Grange offers dementia care, and has dementia-trained qualified nurses.
Palliative care is about making life as comfortable as possible for those with serious, long-term illnesses. It may also involve end-of-life care.
The aim is to minimise suffering while maximising quality of life, usually while working closely with doctors, nurses and other health professionals.
At Beverley Grange, we offer sensitive, respectful and dignified palliative and end-of-life care.
