Maples Care Home

The health, safety and wellbeing of our residents and staff is our top priority. With this in mind we have added a host of new additional safety measures at our facilities to ensure that our residents may continue to live their lives as they choose with minimal inconvenience.

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.

Maples is a modern, purpose-built residential care home in a pleasant residential area of Bexleyheath. The home, with its landscaped private garden, has been carefully designed to offer all the facilities you would expect from a modern care home, whilst retaining a warm and homely feel.

Each floor has its own dining room and lounge where you can gather for meals, for group activities or to socialise.

The communal areas provide a mix of intimate spaces to sit and relax or chat to your visitors, and large communal areas where many of our activities take place, so you are sure to find a favourite spot.

We have our own hair salon and, if residents require chiropody, physiotherapy we can arrange this, but you will need to pay direct for these services.

Maples Care Home has 75 spacious and comfortably furnished en-suite bedrooms, some with a view of our pleasant, landscaped private gardens.

All of the rooms are equipped with TV and telephone points, a nurse call system, and an adjustable automatic bed with a control handset to ensure your comfort. The rooms can accommodate wheelchairs, if required.

Here at Maples it's all about home comforts and making our new residents feel at ease from day one. So we encourage you to personalise your room with pictures, family photographs, treasured mementos and favourite small items of furniture.

We have an active social life in our home with plenty of opportunities to make new friends and participate in a variety of interesting activities and day trips.

This is important because an active life can help to keep you more alert, mobile and happier, with better health and wellbeing overall.

Our activities co-ordinators create a monthly programme of activities ranging from entertainments such as visiting singers and film matinees, to painting and crafts, baking, gardening, quizzes and yoga. If your preferred hobby isn’t on the list, we can help you to continue with it. Even if you find moving about difficult, it is still important to get as much exercise as possible, so we also organise gentle exercise sessions, to help keep you mobile.

Family and friends are welcome to join in with activities, and we also organise special events (like our annual summer fête, for example) to which we invite your family, friends and local community groups. If you like to get out and about, we can arrange for someone to go shopping with you and the activities team also arranges group trips and meals out.

Or it might be that you simply want to read, watch TV or listen to the radio in the quiet of your own room. Or someone to sit with you and read the paper, talk about things that are important to you, or help you keep in touch with your loved ones via post, email or Skype.
