Ridgeway Rise

In line with recent Government recommendations effective from April 2022, care homes in England no longer have restrictions as to the numbers of visits per resident though we ask that you make arrangements in advance of your visit to ensure safe visiting practices can be maintained. LFT testing is no longer mandatory, though to protect the safety and wellbeing of our residents and teams, we would appreciate your support in continuing to do so. Appropriate guidance for using PPE must be followed whilst visiting.

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.

Our beautiful, all-inclusive, luxury home has been purposefully built to include an impressive selection of amenities, services, and facilities to be enjoyed by all residents. Ridgeway Rise Care Home has something for everyone, whether it’s our cinema sessions showing old classics and recent releases, afternoon tea in our landscaped gardens, or beauty treatments in the Hair & Beauty Salon.

We strive to provide a wide range of amenities and opportunities that enable our residents to live their lives to the fullest. From quiet afternoons reading to gardening activities, our activities and amenities have been carefully selected to provide residents with a lifestyle rich in variety and choice.

At Ridgeway Rise Care Home we proudly provide accommodation for 73 residents, each attractively decorated and fitted with an en-suite wet room. The décor and furniture has been carefully selected to provide a welcoming and homely feel. All bedrooms are equipped with everything residents require, including furniture, Wi-Fi, central heating, a Nurse Call System and a television, all designed to provide optimum comfort and relaxation. Residents are welcome to invite visitors to their rooms and we encourage them to bring any of their favourite personal items or furnishings that will help their space feel personalised and like a home-away-from-home.

At Ridgeway Rise Care Home, we believe that residents should be able to make the most out of each and every day. All of our activities at Ridgeway Rise run 7 days a week, and we encourage all residents to continue doing what makes them happy, whether it’s reading a book in the garden, engaging with incredible visiting entertainers, or participating in arts & crafts sessions. We recognise that activities are crucial for enhancing physical fitness and strength, as they help to remain a high level of independence and support Activities of Daily Living (ADL).

Our Activity Coordinators create weekly diverse programmes that are motivating and accessible, from sing-alongs to baking and film afternoons. For those with memory loss, our Activities Programme includes a variety of activities and alternative therapies such as memory boxes and reminiscence. We love to celebrate special occasions with our residents, and we will always go out of our way to make sure each resident feels loved. We also organise frequent visits to popular places within Swindon and continue to develop wonderful connections with the local community.
