Windy Ridge Care Home is in Barton-on-sea, in the county of Hampshire, and caters to service users who require nursing care or have mental health problems such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. The home is located within walking distance of the sea front, and therefore is a regular outing, often via the ice-cream parlour, of course. The home also benefits from access to the mini bus at our sister home Birchy Hill and trips out into the local area are enjoyed.
The home is an older style seaside home, which is revealed in the home’s decor. The home can care for 21 service users, in mostly single rooms. We also have some double rooms, allowing this facility, over the years, to enable married couples to stay together. The home has a large lounge/diner, as well as a large conservatory that overlooks our garden. Our lovely garden compliments the home and includes seating areas and flower beds, which enable those who wish to continue their gardening hobby to do so. It is a well-used space, especially at party time, and has many features, including a seaside area.
Being in the village of Barton-on-sea, and close to the town of New Milton, affords good local transport links, ensuring family and friends can visit often. The home also benefits from a car park.
The home is tastefully decorated, and the service users have had an input into the décor. We truly feel the home is their home, and the service users direct the business accordingly.
Our qualified chefs meet regularly with the service users to develop and review the menus. All meals are prepared in-house from fresh produce to ensure a high quality of food is maintained and a good dining experience is achieved. We feel meal times are a very important part of our day and understand that everyone is different, so we go to great lengths to ensure all needs and wishes are met. All special dietary requirements are able to be accommodated.
Our highly trained and dedicated Care team consist of a Manager, who solely dedicates their time to Windy Ridge Care Home, our full 24-hour nursing team, a head chef and supporting kitchen staff, a highly skilled care team, and maintenance and domestic teams. Our staff members are trained above the national guidelines for Care Assistants. An activity co-ordinator complements the team, as the relationship between taking part in activities and keeping healthy and happy is important with older people in care settings. The benefits of taking part and socialising with others can hugely improve their lives.
Windy Ridge Care Home cares for service users who primarily require nursing care and have mental problems. This is a specialized area of care in which we ensure all our service users, family, and friends, as well as staff, are supported throughout. We put a high importance on quality of life, so our activity coordinator directs and supports our service users in maintaining hobbies and interests wherever possible, ensuring each person’s day is enriched, and that opinions and knowledge are valued.
