Coppermill Care Centre

Coppermill is working within the government guidelines to help protect its staff and clients.

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.

As a purpose-built care home, Coppermill Care provides a range of communal spaces which are designed to encourage people to interact and enjoy each other’s company. As well as dedicated activity areas, where residents can get together to take part in a host of planned activities, we also have two spacious lounges and one dining room on the ground floor and a further two lounges and one dining area on the first floor.

One of our popular spaces is our Country Pub Themed “Hideaway” lounge. For those who like to look their best, we also have a hairdressing salon. We also provide a kitchenette facility on each floor so that residents and their visitors can make beverages and snacks.

Our secluded rear gardens are home to a decked area, where our residents enjoy soaking up the sunshine or enjoying a spot of gardening, for those who are able.

The bedrooms at Coppermill Care are designed to provide people with a sense of privacy, comfort, and safety. Each room is decorated in a modern yet homely style and finished to a high standard.

Residents are encouraged to personalise their room by decorating it with their own possessions such as pictures, photos, ornaments and other personal items. Although all rooms are fully furnished, some residents like to bring in small items of their own furniture. We actively encourage this. It can help people to settle in, enhance their sense of identity and be particularly useful for those with dementia. It can also provide useful and important talking points for the staff to engage people in meaningful conversation.

We encourage everyone to maintain the friendships, hobbies and interests they had before moving to Coppermill Care. Residents are encouraged to engage in choosing activities and letting us know what they want to do. As a result, our activities are very varied, from a quite game of scrabble or cards, sharing memories over photos, or crafting, to pamper days, theme nights, fetes and entertainers from the local community. We help to support this by ensuring that each resident has a personalised activity plan, with activities of their choice.

Keeping active is key to helping residents to maintain life skills, support independence and contribute to both physical and mental wellbeing. Many of our residents thrive on opportunities for social interaction with fellow residents, friends and family and the local community.

Our Activities Coordinators are skilled at planning enjoyable, stimulating activities including bowling, music and movement and bingo, as well as beauty-therapy and board games. We also support people who want to go shopping or out for a drink
