Our Care Services
Residential
Remyck House offers comfortable and safe accommodation for adults over 65 years, with the opportunity to enjoy additional communal facilities, pleasant gardens, activities and home cooked meals.
Dementia
The care home has an outstanding team of highly skilled and passionate care staff equipped to support people living with different types of dementia; including Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia and Korsakoff’s syndrome, on a permanent and short stay basis.
Specialist dementia training allows the team to create a welcoming and inclusive setting, as well as designing meaningful activities for residents to take part in. Carers are skilled in looking after the complex needs of adults diagnosed with a form of dementia, aided by a comfortable living environment and gardens.
Respite
Respite, or short stay care is available at Remyck House for individuals who may require a period of convalescence after an operation or illness, or perhaps because that person’s usual carer is away or needs a break of their own.
Our Team
We recognise that in order to deliver the high quality care service that our residents deserve, we need to recruit the right individuals. We base the recruitment of all our staff on several key principles; commitment, compassion and shared values.
We expect our staff to be committed to providing the best possible care; they must be passionate about caring for others and be able to demonstrate that they share our ethos.
The home’s staff team consists of a Registered Manager who is supported by the Deputy Manager and highly skilled and trained care staff, chefs, kitchen assistants, housekeepers, laundry assistants and an activities organiser.
