Special Features
| We enjoy the informality and usual 'comings and goings' of a family home. Annaliese prides itself on an holistic focus. Our care does not stop at your loved one but extends to the wider family. We have no restrictions on coming and going of residents unless medical issues indicate this. Families are free to come and go whatever time of day suits them. We encourage all residents to personalise their rooms as much as possible to ensure they feel at home. You are free to hang pictures and use your own furniture providing this is within health and safety requirements. Our maintenance person will assist with this.
A variety of things happen on a typical day, and often family and friends join us for Happy Hour, Entertainment or just a chat and a cup of tea, there is always something happening. We also welcome a friendly wave while walking past the front office. |
