You have your date of admission... now what?

On arrival you will be shown around with your family/friends. In your room you will have a wardrobe, a desk/dressing table, a bedside locker and a bed of course! If you require a specialist mattress this will be arranged ready for your admission. Every bedroom has an ensuite wet room and TVs will be available for those who would like one. We will provide towels for your room and the hydrotherapy pool, if there is anything you forget, don’t worry we can arrange for it to be brought by a friend or relative or we can pop to one of supermarkets just around the corner to get what ever you need. (See the packing list below)

Our wonderful chefs will be preparing your meals freshly each day and will come and chat with you when you arrive about your likes/dislikes. Snacks and drinks can be obtained throughout the day as required. Most of our clients enjoy eating their meals in the Café area. If you prefer somewhere quieter, there are other dining spaces within the building.

You will receive a timetable for the week with all your therapy sessions and free time. We can email this to you or print you a copy.

On admission, we will give you a pendant to wear when you arrive, this is our nurse call system which means you can get help when ever you need it.

There will be lots of opportunity to socialise in the evenings if we haven’t exhausted you in the day. This is optional of course.
