The buildings have been thoughtfully and attractively converted from barns which date back to the 1700's, and by retaining their original features and character we have managed to create a warm, homely and comfortable environment for our clients. Our purpose built Dementia Unit was completed in 2002.

Choice of Living Accommodation
The CottageThis is a small separate unit for eight residents, suitable for the more independent client who prefers a homely environment. The Cottage has six single rooms and one double room, all of which are ensuite.
The Barns
The Barns is situated in the main building and has seventeen single rooms and one double room. This unit cares for the more dependent client as staffing ratios are higher.
The Garden Wing This unit is also part of the main building and provides care for clients with dementia. It is a separate unit with twenty-five rooms and one double room, all with ensuite facilities. There is also a secure garden area for clients to enjoy.
Care
The care that we offer is entirely focused on the careful evaluation of a resident’s changing needs. We do this through a comprehensive set of assessments which are carried out prior to admission. These assessments allow us to ensure that Rose Farm can continually meet both our residents’ needs and improve their quality of life.An individually tailored, detailed plan of how care will be delivered is agreed at the outset and reviewed regularly with the resident, ensuring understanding and inspiring confidence.
The key worker scheme is highly effective, our experience is that carers gain a greater understanding of a specific individual and are thus able to notice deteriorations or improvements in the residents' well being. Better understanding means that care can remain discreet and the level of support adjusted according to need.
Food
Food is of course a very important part of daily life at Rose Farm. Meals can be taken in one of three dining rooms. Alternatively resident’s can also eat in their own room if they so wish. We take pride in the variety and quality of our cuisine, which is freshly prepared in our kitchen. Special dietary needs and cultural preferences are also catered for.Gallery
