St Catherines is able to offer accommodation either on a permanent basis or for short convalescent stays. We cater for respite care, allowing families to go on holiday with peace of mind. Facilities at St Catherines can cater for most medical, nursing, EMI and special needs associated with age and increasing dependency.

Individual nursing and personal care needs are assessed regularly by our highly skilled and dedicated care team. We consider it very important that our residents and their families are involved in care planning and are given access to information on request.

As professional service providers we recognise that the delivery of the highest standards demand professional skills and motivation. Our staff undergo intensive training to ensure their maximum development and they work towards a recognisable qualification.

St Catherines has a wide range of specialist equipment to give necessary assistance with daily living needs.

We operate an active training programme leading to the nationally recognised NVQ Level III qualification in caring for the elderly for care staff. We support the ongoing professional development of our nurses. In 1996 St Catherines was awarded the prestigious Investors in People award reflecting our commitment to ongoing staff development programmes.

We will happily meet any special requirements with regards to dietary needs. Food is prepared in our large, well-equipped modern kitchen. We offer a wide range of menu and happily cater for individual preferences.

Our modern laundry facilities ensure all garments are returned to residents promptly. All laundry is done in-house to ensure quality of service.

We arrange regular visits by local doctors, dentists, chiropodists, physiotherapists, opticians and clergy. Attendance at a local church or continued attendance at any clubs or associations that the resident may wish to maintain can be arranged.
