Well-being, care & nutrition in our care homes
Life at Stag
Our care is underpinned by a commitment to our residents’ well-being and good health.
Stimulating activities for positive well-being
Well-being
We focus on ensuring all of our residents have a sense of belonging and well-being.
Whatever they want or need, we try to ensure our residents get to live a fulfilled and meaningful life. We learn about their interests and hobbies and ensure they are engaged in a positive way each day. Our varied activities calendar helps to support the physiological and social well-being of every resident.
Our types of care
Residential Care
Isolation affects millions of elderly people each year in the UK. As well as quality care, our homes provide a sense of community to our residents. We offer a host of activities for residents to take part in, encouraging them to live independently whilst giving help and support where needed.
Nursing Care
As we age people’s needs change, and this can often be unexpected and disconcerting. Our teams are trained to adapt to these changing needs, helping residents adjust to fluctuations in their health whilst retaining their independence as much as possible. This assistance means residents can focus on living their best life.
Dementia Care
We understand that learning to live with dementia can be hard for the individual and their loved ones. There are different types and stages of dementia, meaning everyone’s care needs are different. Our teams are on hand to advise, recommend and plan for a life with dementia, tailoring our care to each individual.
Respite Care
Not everyone needs permanent care. Perhaps loved ones are going away and want peace of mind that you’ll be safe in their absence. Or maybe you’re coming out of a hospital stay and need additional support while you recover. Our respite residents have access to all the benefits of permanent residents but on a short-term basis.
Palliative Care
Our residents’ quality of life is our priority, and so our aim is to make them feel as comfortable as possible during the final stages of life. We understand how difficult this time is for families, so our team of kind and compassionate staff are here to make the journey as easy as possible.
Healthy care home food
Food & nutrition
We all know the old adage “you are what you eat”
and we take it very seriously.
Our kitchens are modern places where experienced professionals create nourishing, fresh food to suit every diet, every day. Sourcing local produce where possible, and with a focus on seasonal dishes, our cooks are a source of pride to our company. They are also among the longest serving team members we have, too – some of have been with us for over two decades!
We work closely with healthcare professionals and dieticians to ensure our food is healthy and nutritious. We also offer specialist meals for vegetarians, pescetarians and vegans.
Food is served in our community-focused dining rooms at mealtimes, but residents are free to request snacks and other meals whenever they like. If they would prefer to dine in the comfort of their own rooms, this is not a problem – individual choice is at the heart of everything we do
Making Residents Lives easier
Technology in our Homes
We are embracing the digital world in our care homes
We embrace technology within our care homes where it helps our residents and where it helps reduce administration time, allowing our carers to spend more of their time caring. From an all-digital administration office system, the Nursecall system to electronic care planning, if it helps us deliver better care, we try and incorporate it into our systems.
For our residents we encourage any technology that provides stimulation and improved communication. Whether that looks like Skype calls with friends and family, to helping them set up their own computer or laptop, we are all in favour, and of course it goes without saying that all our homes have free Wifi for residents and guests alike.
