Our Philosphy

At Brooklands we strive to look after our residents with care, patience, empathy and compassion

Brooklands will provide comprehensive care for each individual resident taking into account his/her physical, social, psychological and spiritual, and cultural needs. These needs will be met with the involvement of the multi-disciplinary team which included General Practitioners, local clergy, speech, nutrition therapist, Physiotherapist etc.

Our Approach

Multi-Professional and Holistic approach

Residents are registered with our own General Practitioners who carry out weekly visits. Emergency visits are attended to by our General Practitioners or the On call Care team. Hospital visits can be arranged with ambulance or other transport. A multi – professional approach of care is advocated for our residents.

Visits by physiotherapists, speech therapists, community psychiatric nurses, Opticians, chiropodists and social workers are available as needed.  The hairdresser visits once a week to provide hairdressing services.

Visiting specialists such as Incontinence Nurses, Tissue Viability advisor’s, Hospice nurses and Infection Control Nurses make regular visits in an advisory capacity.  Our local Surgery provide Brooklands residents with the Nomad System of Medication.  

An activities programme is available to all residents and during the Summer months outings can be arranged for those who are able to participate. Various church groups and other voluntary bodies visit the residents periodically. Announced and unannounced inspections are carried out by the Commission for Social Care Inspections.

Brooklands is a family-owned home that offers quality personal and nursing care.
