Person-centred care

We approach Residents’ care holistically, looking after all aspects of their wellbeing, including physical, emotional, dietary and spiritual needs. It’s essential for us to work in collaboration with Residents and their loved ones, so they can decide on the type of care they want. Every Resident has individual needs, and it’s our job to meet them.

Residents can rely on us to regularly check in with them to ensure they are happy and comfortable in everything we are doing. Their voice is the most important one, and their requests and feedback shape everything we do. Mental wellbeing has a significant impact on physical health, so we make it our mission to ensure both are taken care of by our caring Colleagues.

Living life to the full

We may be based in a rural village, but we’re still a busy Care Home in Norfolk. There are plenty of daily activities, including musical and reminiscence sessions suitable for Residents living with dementia. Favourites include arts and crafts, music and dance, bingo, quizzes and pampering sessions, to name but a few.

The Home also hosts regular events including a summer and Christmas fete. We have visitors including an entertainer who comes regularly to perform Residents’ favourite songs on his guitar. We also facilitate trips out into the local area, there are plenty of well-loved beauty spots nearby for Residents to visit.

Dining and nutrition

Our dedicated chefs prepare everything on our varied, daily menu fresh on-site. We use seasonal produce, locally sourced where possible, to create a range of dishes for Residents to enjoy.

We ask for input and feedback from Residents, so we can ensure that their favourite foods are included, and popular dishes are served often. All dietary requirements will be taken into account, so Residents can be confident we will respect any cultural needs or personal choices they have.

Covid-secure visiting

Our number one priority is keeping Residents safe and connected with their loved ones. We have recently created a COVID-secure, indoor visiting space to ensure that Residents can socialise with their family and friends in warmth and comfort.

Electronic care plans

We always strive to innovate and use technology to enhance our provision of person-centred care. Our Home uses Electronic Care Plans which provide instant and secure access to care details and provide a thorough overview of support and activities. Using technology increases efficiency and enables our Colleagues to spend more meaningful time with Residents and improving the quality of interactions and care and support provided.

A message from our Manager

“I started working at Woodstock Care Home Ltd 11 years ago. I started as a care assistant and worked my way up to become the Registered Manager in 2022.

I love learning new things and take pride in my work. My goal for Woodstock Care Home is to create a comfortable and safe place for our residents. I want them to be able to enjoy their life here in the best way possible.

Aside from work, I love baking and spending quality time with my family. I’ll often bring my team and residents some of my baked goods.”
