The Burren

The Burren 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.

The home is divided into separate, self-contained Lodges that provide different types of specialist care for people with complex needs. 

On the ground floor, we work with a multidisciplinary team to offer care and support for people with neuro-rehabilitation needs, who may have a brain injury, stroke, or other long-term neurological needs. 

We also offer care and support for people who have progressive degenerative conditions, such as Huntington’s disease and people with Parkinsonism-type diseases.

On our middle floor, we offer care and support for people with degenerative brain disease, including complex dementias and mental health conditions. This can include people who may have challenging behaviour.

Our homes all have lovely garden spaces that allow residents to spend time outside with the staff or their visitors. Where residents wish to do so, they can get involved with caring for the garden.

The Burren has comfortable living and dining rooms for residents to spend time communally as they wish, in addition to quieter spaces to meet with visitors, reflect, or have quiet time.

Our rooms all have en-suite bathrooms and offer spacious bedrooms that we encourage residents to personalise and decorate.

Every day brings a new opportunity to create meaningful experiences. We design our activities with care - intended to inspire, engage, and foster genuine connections among our residents. 

Working closely with Nordoff and Robbins, the UK's largest music therapy charity with over 60 years of experience, we bring the transformative power of music into our community. Bespoke sessions allow residents to enjoy music's calming and uplifting effects, nurturing emotional expression and creating warm, heartfelt interactions.

We are equally proud of our close ties with the National Activity Providers Association, which underline our commitment to a life filled with purpose and joy. In partnership with them, we craft stimulating programmes that blend creativity with compassionate care, ensuring that every moment matters. 

Each resident is seen, valued, and encouraged to engage fully with life. Our approach is about celebrating small victories and building an environment where genuine connections can flourish daily.
