Our Care Home Environment

At Lilian Faithfull Care, we understand that the place you live plays a significant role in your comfort, happiness and well-being. That’s why our care home environment is not just safe and supportive but also warm, inviting and filled with spaces designed to enhance your quality of life.

What’s more, we own all of our homes and many of them are historic characterful buildings which lend a distinctive feel to each home. All have been updated sympathetically and are fully accessible.

 

IDYLLIC OUTSIDE SPACES

Nature plays a vital role in our well-being, which is why we’ve created beautiful outside spaces for our residents to enjoy. Each home sits within its own beautifully kept grounds and gardens which are carefully maintained, offering a peaceful retreat where you can take a stroll, enjoy the fresh air, or participate in gardening and outdoor activities. We encourage residents to enjoy these as much as possible. With seating areas scattered throughout, our gardens provide the perfect backdrop for enjoying a sunny afternoon or spending time with loved ones.

 

DINING WITH DELIGHT

Our dining rooms are more than just places to eat. Meals are central to people’s lives, they’re spaces where our residents come together to share meals, stories and laughter. We take pride in offering delicious and nutritious home-cooked meals, prepared with care by our talented chefs. We prepare each meal with fresh ingredients to make sure it’s both tasty and nutritious for all our residents, making sure we cater to all dietary needs and preferences, so everyone can enjoy their meals with great company.

 

RELAX IN COSY LOUNGES

Our lounges are the heart of our care homes. They offer comfortable, welcoming spaces where residents can unwind, read, play board and card games or simply enjoy a chat with friends. Each one of our lounges are thoughtfully furnished to create a homely atmosphere, with plenty of cosy corners for quiet moments and larger areas for group activities. Whether you’re looking to socialise or enjoy some peaceful time alone, our lounges are designed to meet your needs.

 

PERSONALISED ROOMS FOR COMFORT

Your room is your personal space. Our rooms are comfortable and thoughtfully furnished, but we encourage residents to decorate their rooms to reflect their personality. You can bring in your favourite chair, hang family photos on the walls, or add your favourite blankets and cushions. Each room is designed with your comfort in mind, offering a peaceful space where you can relax, read your favourite book, or simply enjoy some quiet time in privacy.

 

ACCESSIBILITY AND SAFETY

Making our homes accessible and safe is incredibly important to us and our residents. We’ve made sure that every part of our homes is designed with this in mind. From wide hallways and lifts to handrails and emergency call systems, we’ve thought of every detail to ensure you feel secure and supported. Our homes are designed in such a way that all residents can move around freely and enjoy every part of their home.

 

A COMMUNITY THAT CARES

At the heart of our care home environment is the sense of community we foster. Our staff are not just caregivers; they’re companions, always ready with a smile and a helping hand. We strive to create an atmosphere where everyone feels valued, supported, and at ease.

Our Housekeeping teams

We take great pride in providing the highest standards of cleanliness and maintenance throughout our homes, ensuring they are always clean, fresh, hygienic and well maintained. Each home has a team of housekeeping staff on site seven days a week to ensure that standards are maintained. Each resident is allocated their own housekeeper who will organise convenient times for cleaning taking into account personal preferences.

Our Laundry Service

We have a dedicated team of people working in each home to care for all the linen. They wash and iron everything from the resident’s clothes, to the bed linen and towels. Our in house service means that we have full control over standards and provide a quick turnaround for personal laundry.

Our Estates Team

Our Estates team manage the continual programme of refurbishment and maintenance across all our homes and hubs as well as larger construction and landscaping projects.    The team, which includes a handyman based at each site, have a wide range of skills so many jobs can be quickly and efficiently dealt with ‘in house’, without having the delays of having to call in external contractors.

The team are central to the logistics behind many of our events and activities, such as our charity wide BBQ in the Forest of Dean, as well as the regular Garden Parties, Fairs and the annual Firework display at St Faith’s.  Like so many others at Lilian Faithfull Care, the team go the extra mile for residents bringing their own talents to our homes. For example, one of the team painted the mural in the Garden room at Faithfull House and another brought his band to play for a Garden party!

MORE THAN JUST A PLACE TO LIVE

At Lilian Faithfull Care, we’re more than just a place to live—we’re a community where you can truly feel at home. Whether it’s enjoying a delicious meal, relaxing in a cosy lounge, or taking a stroll in our gardens, our homes are designed to offer you comfort, companionship and most importantly of all, peace of mind.
