Living at Shire House

Picture

Religion

Shire House is non-sectarian and residents may follow whichever faith they choose. Holy Communion takes place each month, however should you wish to attend church on a weekend, staff will assist in booking transport for you, e.g. taxis.

Housekeeping

All rooms are cleaned by our housekeeper weekly; basins, toilets, tables are cleaned and bins emptied daily.

Medical Services

The area is very well served locally with two Primary Care Trusts supporting all needs of the residents. These include district nurses, chiropody, physio, occupational therapy and alternative therapies when requested. Individual doctors' details can be provided if required. Doctors will visit if needed or residents can be taken by staff to all appointments, including hospital appointments.

Laundry

All clothes are appropriately labelled by the key carers for each individual. All bed linen and bathroom items are changed weekly or more often if required. All personal laundry is included, however dry cleaning is paid by the individual.

Health & Safety

All residents and staff are made aware of the action to be taken in the event of fire precautions, associated emergency procedures and safe working practices. The home conforms to all relevant government guidance on promoting and protecting the health, safety and welfare of residents and staff.
