Care and facilities at Woodside House Care Home

Choosing the right care home for your loved one can be a difficult decision, especially if you’re unsure what type of care they require. Here at Woodside House, we can offer a number of unique care options, including short-term respite stays, palliative care, dementia care, and even day care. Those we support also have access to a number of different home features and facilities, such as regular exercise classes, landscaped gardens, TV lounges, as well as electric profiling beds, a nurse call system and extra services like a hairdressing salon and regular outings to places local places of interest. We have a team of professionals in house who can offer guidance and answer any questions that you may have about our care and facilities, or alternatively please see below for a list of all the care types and services that we provide.

We are now using handheld digital technology called 'Enable' internally to develop, update and manage our care and life enrichment documentation for residents. We work with one of the UK’s major digital care home documentation providers and have a bespoke platform to manage documentation digitally which aligns with our wish to deliver the highest quality individual care and life enrichment. You will see our team members using hand-held devices as the care plans and life enrichment preferences will be accessed via the device on an App. This will mean that it may look like our teams are using their mobile telephones, rest assured this is not the case and all technology used in the home is there to support our residents and relatives. There are so many benefits in moving to using digital technology to care for our residents, and for the staff working at the home including improving communication and collaboration between teams, increasing accuracy of care intervention recording and becoming more environmentally friendly.
