Overview
Life in Drovers Call is what you make it, whether it is enjoying activities while making new friends in the communal lounge or reminiscing with loved ones in your private ensuite bedroom, each day is filled with companionship, laughter and comfort in this home away from home.
Recently renovated and spread across three floors, the facility offers private ensuite bedrooms, a warm and welcoming reception area with multiple communal lounges, a full equipped dining area with an in-house chef providing daily home cooked meals and beautiful garden areas to be enjoyed by all.
Drovers Call are proud to offer those who challenge mainstream services a safe place to call home and is clinically lead by a clinical Psychologist. We have purpose built our specialised rooms to meet the needs of individuals with acquired brain injuries, challenging behaviour, dementia, and a variety of other complex conditions. Each unique space is designed to a high-end specification and has been created with safety and comfort as top priority.
Social interaction plays a huge role in the day-to-day life in Drovers Call with planned daily activities for all to enjoy. A smaller lounge allows opportunity for residents to enjoy small functions, one-to-one activities and offers them a space to have some quiet time should they wish.
Highly experienced and skilled staff offer round the clock care and strive to meet the needs and wishes of each resident. Those assessed as having higher dependency requirements have access to nursing care from qualified and experienced Registered Nurses. Our staff are Studio3 trained and we continuously support their development to ensure the residents are receiving the best and appropriate care for their needs.
