Questions families ask
Is a hairdresser available in the home?
Yes. A professional hairdresser visits the salon weekly, and residents can also invite their regular hairdresser into the home. This service is included in the fees.
What is the minimum respite stay?
The minimum respite stay is three weeks. Before admission, they assess the person’s care needs and how long the stay should be. Respite care can help after illness, injury or an operation, or give a full-time carer a break.
What happens if a resident’s care needs change?
They assess care plans regularly and update them with the resident and family when needs or arrangements change, so the care continues to match the person’s health and wellbeing needs.
Do all Silverleigh bedrooms have an ensuite?
Yes. Every bedroom has access to a private ensuite wetroom with a sink and toilet.
Can residents bring their own furniture and belongings?
Yes. Residents are encouraged to bring photographs, decorations, small furniture and other personal items to make their rooms feel like home.
What activities are available for residents?
Residents can join pet therapy, arts and crafts, film nights, gardening, exercise sessions, live entertainment, games, quizzes and community trips by minibus or smaller vehicle.
