Our Philosophy
Respect for the dignity and individuality of all our residents
At Remyck House we actively encourage and embrace family and friends of our residents who wish to be involved in the care of their relative.
We understand that placing your loved one in the care of others may be daunting, but we always aim to keep you informed and will respect your wishes on the level of involvement you would like to have. There is always a warm welcome for our visitors and friends of the home.
Our philosophy of care underpins everything that we do, in order to ensure a homely, caring and stimulating environment for all of our residents, regardless of individual needs.
The Home aims to:
- Offer skilled care to enable people who live here to achieve their optimum state of health and well-being.
- Treat all people who live and work at the home and all people who visit with respect and dignity at all times.
- Uphold the human and citizenship rights of all who live, work and visit here.
- Support individual choice and personal decision-making as the right of all residents.
- Respect and encourage the right of independence of all residents.
- Respect individual requirement for privacy at all times and treat all information relating to individuals in a confidential manner.
- Recognise the individual need for personal fulfilment and offer individualised programmes of meaningful activity to satisfy the needs of our residents.
Above all, to make all residents feel at home, safe and comfortable.
Safe, celebrated and supported
Remyck House will do everything possible to keep all of our residents safe from all forms of abuse and neglect; working with our residents, their families and other agencies to prevent avoidable harm.
We believe in care that meets individual’s needs, because they are involved fully in the planning of their care delivery. Each resident is celebrated and supported to be an individual, to have their own social, emotional, spiritual, cultural, political and sexual needs accepted, supported and respected.
We will be responsive to what we see, hear and know; to ensure that our residents maintain their health and wellbeing.
