Homes and facilities

Eothen homes are set in attractive andspacious gardens and are anything butisolated. Our locations are carefullychosen so they are close to shops,restaurants and leisure facilitiesallowing residents used to leading anactive life to continue in this way.

We have a programme of continualinvestment in our facilities to ensure theyremain not just fit for purpose but highlywelcoming too. Our values are traditionaland our residents live in surroundings thatare warm, inviting and equipped witheverything they need.

Telephones, internet and newspapers areavailable for residents to use wheneverthey wish, and we organise visits fromhairdressers, health specialists and otherservices when residents require them.

An important part of the Eothenphilosophy is our community involvement.We run regular reminiscence, art and craftsessions as well as daily group andindividual activities, inviting schools andother members of the community to thehomes to interact with residents. It is afriendly, busy environment whereresidents can make new friends, find newinterests or continue with the hobbies andpastimes they have always enjoyed. Thatsaid, taking part is not compulsory. We talkto residents and act on their feedback toorganise the kind of events, outings andactivities they want to take part in,grounded in our Christian Fellowshipethos.

Nutrition and wellbeing

Residents’ nutrition is top of ouragenda, ensuring everyone hasnutritious, home cooked food with thekind of meals they enjoy, which is soimportant in maintaining their physicalhealth.

Meals are personally prepared forresidents from quality ingredients, takinginto account their preferences and anydietary or medical requirements. Residentscan enjoy the communal atmosphere ofthe dining room, where they can chat tofriends and staff, or eat in their own roomsif they prefer.

Wellbeing is so much more than a healthybody and our sessions with staff andmembers of the community are designedto stimulate residents physically andmentally, provide them with new interestsand the opportunity to share thoughts andideas.
