Specialist Mental Health Unit
Mentally frail people are cared for in these two dedicated 15 bed wings by a team of highly trained and committed staff. Brendoncare knows the high level of support needed in caring for this very special client group, and the staff are dedicated to improving the quality of life for the people in their care.
Staff are trained to recognise and care for physical and psychological illness, and call at the right time upon the services of other health professionals. The unit offers an environment that is dignified, safe and secure. It is calm, clean and clearly set out. Within a community setting, each resident has their own en-suite room in a bright yet calm and relaxing community atmosphere. All staff support this community, and are committed to building close relationships with residents, gaining a deep understanding of their individual health and social needs. There is an attractive, secluded garden designated especially for our mentally frail residents.
There are also dedicated daycare sessions for mentally frail people.
Accepting outside help in caring for a close friend or cherished family member is an enormous step. If you are ready to take that step, rest assured that the support, care and understanding of the staff at Brendoncare Alton will help make the move easier.
