The Manor House - Principles of Care

Fulfilment

To inform ourselves as fully as each resident wishes about their individual histories and characteristics

To provide a range of leisure and recreational activities to suit the tastes and abilities of all residents and to stimulate participation

To provide transport to take residents out for visits and shopping trips.

To encourage and assist residents to pursue interests

To enable residents to keep small pets as long as they are able to care for them with minimal assistance if other residents do not object.

To respond appropriately to the personal, intellectual, artistic and spiritual values of each resident

To respect the residents' religious, ethnic and cultural diversity

To help the residents to maintain existing contacts and to make new liaisons, friendships, and personal or sexual relationships if they wish

To ensure that the friends and family of each resident are accorded due respect and are welcomed into the home

To attempt always to listen and attend promptly to any resident's desire to communicate at whatever level.

To provide opportunities for each resident to express themselves and have influence on the way their home is being run. As The Manor House is a small home with the proprietors living on site there are numerous opportunities for expression and discussion.
In addition, residents views are actively sought by the use
of questionnaires and surveys.
