Glendale Residential Care Home Based in Felsted, Essex
Dementia and Alzheimer's Care
Dementia is an everchanging and ever evolving condition, but we believe this should not define the person and care should never be compromised.
We aim to provide the best home from home experience for your loved one and pride ourselves on getting to know each resident thoroughly to build positive relationships as well as create personalised care plans updated monthly and whenever needs change so staff can always know the best approaches and ways to care for your loved one.
Our staff are trained in high needs dementia care, which enables staff to have the correct knowledge and understanding of different levels of dementia. Our manager is qualified in Train the Trainer for dementia care so is able to provide additional guidance and support to staff in between their trainings if needed. She has also completed the Home Life programme which is a comprehensive year-long training to better support families and staff.
Our staff never fail to provide compassionate, person-centred care for each individual and their needs right up until their final days. At Glendale, we feel privileged to care for your loved one right up until their final day. We adapt to their needs and aim to make their final days as pain free and comfortable as possible and ensure we respect and adhere to any preferences and wishes, including Last Rites, from our resident and their family. Our Manager has an NCFE (National Certificate of Further Education) Level 3 qualification in End Of Life Care and all our staff are trained in in this area too to deliver and ensure a holistic approach is maintained.
We know residents are not always able to communicate in a way that most people would. This is one of the many reasons why it is important for our staff to undertake continuous training so they are able to recognise different signs, behaviours and non-verbal communication. It is also important to ensure communication with residents who are able to verbalise their thoughts, feelings, wants and needs is on a level which our residents can understand without a sense of being overwhelmed or overloaded with information.
Not all residents are able to verbalise their wants and needs so it is crucial for staff to interpret these and ensure to always act in the best interest of our residents. Wherever possible, we strive to promote choice, independence and purpose while still maintaining and ensuring the safety, privacy, dignity, respect and wellbeing of each resident.
What Makes Us Stand Out
Family Run
Compassionate
Experienced
Old Age/Elderly Care
Glendale is a welcoming home where the older generation can thrive and enjoy their golden years. With compassion and care at the core of the home, we provide personalised care designed for each resident’s individual needs. Our home offers a range of facilities including comfortable living spaces, a quiet area, fresh home cooked meals, engaging activities and 24-hour care. We have sensory corridors with bird tweeting music playing and corridor walls are decorated with birds and butterflies, so your loved one is stimulated even when passing through corridors. We believe in creating a warm and welcoming environment where residents feel safe and valued.
A Haven of Care, A Home of Love
Younger Adults and Physical Disability Care
At Glendale, we are dedicated to providing exceptional care for not only individuals with dementia and the elderly, but people with physical disabilities over the age of 60 years including those with brain injuries, stroke, speech impairment, learning disabilities, visual impairment and Parkinson’s disease. We appreciate the unique challenges and needs that come with these conditions and our highly trained staff are here to offer support and kindness to enhance the quality of life for our residents. We strive to enable individuals to live fulfilling lives and maintain independence as much as possible.
