Our Care Services
Providing personalised care and support to help every resident live comfortably, confidently, and with dignity
Residential Care
Also referred to as Personal Care and Assisted Living, this service is for people aged 65 and above who require support with the activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, medication supervision, cooking, cleaning, and mobility which can no longer be managed at home.
Many residents also choose to live with us simply because they no longer want to live alone or to shoulder the burden of maintaining their own home.
Care for this group of residents is simply about peace of mind, and we are able to provide a place where our residents are able to flourish; making friends and exploring new interests.
Care is available 24 hours a day seven days a week and directed by highly skilled healthcare workers.
Dementia Care
For those living with dementia, the dementia care program is designed to focus on a person’s key strengths, helping residents live active and fulfilling lives whilst with us at Glebe House.
People experiencing dementia can have difficulty communicating, which in turn can lead to a sense of isolation.
Our dementia care program is there to help find ways in which they can re-engage with their families, friends and the community as a whole. It has been formulated by our dementia care specialists and is constantly informed by the most up-to-date research available.
In essence, our approach is to gain an insight into our residents life stories through recollections of family members and memories.
Respite Care
Respite care at Glebe House provides short-term support for individuals who may require additional care following a hospital stay, whilst recovering from illness, or when a regular carer needs a well-earned break.
Our respite residents enjoy the same high standard of care, comfortable accommodation, and welcoming atmosphere as our long-term residents, ensuring they feel at home from the moment they arrive.
With access to our attractive gardens, engaging activities, and dedicated care team, respite stays can provide valuable support, companionship, and peace of mind for both residents and their families.
Whether for a few days or a longer stay, our experienced team is here to provide personalised care tailored to individual needs.
Day Care
Our day care service offers older people the opportunity to enjoy companionship, activities, and professional support in a safe and welcoming environment, whilst continuing to live independently at home.
Guests can take part in a range of social activities, enjoy freshly prepared meals, and spend time with others in a friendly and supportive community.
Day care can also provide valuable reassurance for families and carers, knowing their loved one is receiving attentive care and enjoying meaningful social interaction throughout the day.
Whether attending regularly or occasionally, we aim to ensure every visit is enjoyable, engaging, and enriching.

Amanda C (Daughter of Resident)
We visited prior to Covid and always found the staff to be both caring and professional. Everyone we met from domestic to managerial are so kind. The home is a real home. This has given such peace of mind in this pandemic. Staff have been so very helpful with updates since restrictions.
Kate (Friend of Resident)
My mother was a resident at Glebe House for a few years and was looked after very well. I liked all the staff, the carers were always cheerful, helpful and compassionate and to appeared genuinely be fond of the residents. My only disappointment was that I felt there was not enough stimulation or activities to keep the residents from getting so bored.
Sarah F (Daughter of Resident)
My father was only here for a short time prior to his death but I was very impressed with the caring attitude of all the management and staff whilst he was a resident here. It was particularly comforting to also note the very caring and understanding attitude extended to my mother by all the staff when she visited on a daily basis. The family was very pleased that we were able to find a room at this quiet and tranquil home for my father's last days.
