Medical Care

The healthcare of our residents

We seek to facilitate good access for residents to NHS community medical services provided by GP’s.

In order that residents can live their lives at optimum capacity we also support regular access to ancillary health professionals. Opticians visit regularly with an annual eye test being offered to each resident. A regular chiropody clinic is held. We refer residents to the hospital when hearing aids are required and maintenance of aids is carried out on a regular basis. We have a referral system to the local dentist. Specialist nurses provide us with support and advice as required for specialist wound care and palliative care. Occupational therapy, physiotherapy and rehabilitation therapy are all available in line with NHS policy. We ensure that residents attend booked hospital appointments.
