Sand Banks Care Centre team
Our caring and highly valued staff members receive regular training, with most having achieved a care qualification. All new members of staff undertake the national care certificate as part of their induction, ensuring a consistent high standard. Care, including care for people living with dementia or related conditions, is carefully tailored, in conjunction with residents and their families, to provide individual care programmes demonstrable in individualised care plans.
Our meals and mealtimes
We have a dedicated catering team providing homemade, flavoursome meals and snacks throughout the day. We work very closely with allied professionals to ensure the meals we provide are nutritious, balanced and tailored to meet residents’ dietary requirements. Wherever possible we use local suppliers and fresh produce. We provide snack points and food and drink is available 24 hrs a day, which is especially valuable to those who reside in our dementia care communities. This catering team is now recognised by residents and their families, as well as the local authorities, as providing an exceptional service.
Leisure time
A good use of leisure time is crucial to a sense of wellbeing. Therefore, we work hard to provide a wide range of activities tailored to ensure residents continue to enjoy their hobbies and interests within the care centre. We have good links in the local community and also support charities through fundraising events. This care centre, like all Prestige facilities, works alongside Oomph the meaningful activities charity to ensure all activities and occupations are personalised.
