Wild Acres Care Home

At Wild Acres Care Home, the safety and wellbeing of our residents and staff are our highest priority.

Our dedicated team receives comprehensive induction training, regular refresher training, and ongoing professional development in areas including safeguarding, infection prevention and control, moving and handling, medication management, first aid, and dementia care. We carry out regular risk assessments, medication audits, health and safety checks, and quality assurance reviews to ensure we consistently deliver safe, high-quality care. We maintain high standards of cleanliness throughout the home, follow robust infection prevention procedures, and work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure residents receive the best possible care.

By continually investing in our staff and reviewing our practices, we provide a safe, caring, and supportive environment where residents and their families can feel confident and reassured.

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.

There are two communal lounges in the home. One is a large lounge for those who enjoy sitting and chatting or watching television, the conservatory lounge is for those who prefer quiet recreation and reading.

There is a separate dining room where we encourage all residents to have their meals together and use this opportunity for socializing but those who prefer having their meals in their rooms are given the choice to do so.

The home has delightfully landscaped gardens and a large patio area with seating which residents and families enjoy throughout the warmer months. A separate room is allocated for hairdressing and Occupational therapy sessions. In addition, we employ handymen and gardeners as well as other professionals to keep the home safe and running smoothly for you.

Wild Acres Care Home has 26 comfortable bedrooms. En-suite facilities are available in 13 of the bedrooms.

The remaining 13 bedrooms all have washbasins and a nearby bathroom. All bedrooms are furnished with a bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers and a chair. Nurse call bell systems are in place in every room.

Our Wellbeing and Lifestyle Manager, Olena, and our Lifestyle Coordinator, Roxi, provide stimulating, engaging, and meaningful activities for all our residents. They play a vital role in enriching daily life at Wild Acres by creating a fun, inclusive, and varied programme of activities that everyone can enjoy.

Olena and Roxi take the time to get to know each resident as an individual, tailoring activities to personal interests, hobbies, and abilities. This person-centred approach enables the ladies and gentlemen who live with us to learn new skills, rediscover much-loved pastimes, and enjoy opportunities for social connection through an ever-evolving programme of events.

Activities vary widely and may include arts and crafts, visiting musicians, gentle exercise sessions, and outings such as trips to the local garden centre.

All activities are thoughtfully designed to stimulate the mind, support physical movement, and promote emotional wellbeing, helping residents to feel happy, engaged, and fulfilled between visits from family and friends.

Pets are not allowed at Wild Acres.
