Uplands Day Care

Established by the local community in 1998, Uplands is committed to providing good adult day care for local people in a friendly setting.  This care and support helps people to continue to live independently, improves quality of life and gives respite to carers and families.

Our team are experienced in caring for people with a wide range of conditions; those living with dementia, Parkinson’s or cardiac and respiratory conditions and those recuperating after a stroke or hospital visit.  If guests require medication during the day our trained staff are able to assist with or administer medication as required.

The days at Uplands follow a familiar pattern but everything is flexible in response to the needs and wishes of our guests.

Our staff carry out an assessment before guests attend to ensure a thorough understanding of their needs. It also guides which days would be best suited for visits.

All are welcome at Uplands, irrespective of guest’s religious beliefs, sexual orientation or ethnicity.

Uplands is operating under strict infection control procedures to create a Covid-safe environment.

This includes;

1. Vaccinations, Staff have received their second vaccination. Guests have had at least their first dose of vaccine.
2. Testing, Staff take lateral flow tests twice a week and a PCR test once a week. Guests are offered a test once a week.
3. Personal Protective Equipment, Staff are continuing to wear masks (despite restrictions lifting) and extra PPE where appropriate.
4. Cleaning and Cleanliness, Rigorous cleaning is in place.  Cleanliness routines are built into the day including use of automatic hand sanitiser dispensers.
5. Social Distancing is in place in the hall.

For further information please speak to Hayley, Uplands manager who will be pleased to discuss these procedures further.

Our programme of activities is key in the care and well-being of our guests.  We enjoy providing a wide range of options and finding relevant and stimulating activities which can include;

We provide a freshly prepared and nutritious two-course lunch and cater for all dietary requirements and preferences.  Refreshments are also offered throughout the day. We enjoy making meals a sociable and relaxed occasion.

We offer appointments for an assisted bathing service.  Our trained staff use our modern bathing facilities to offer dignified and relaxed bathing for guests.

Please contact Hayley or one of the team to make an appointment.

As a charity we are able to offer very competitive rates. The day session rate includes a hot two course lunch.  Our Assisted bathing service is charged for separately. For up to date charges please contact Hayley and the team.

Uplands day care is based at All Saints Centre which is on the corner of Springfield Road and Upper Springfield Road.

From Slad Road turn up the hill at The Fountain Inn, past the Post Office (do not turn right into the cul-de-sac leading to the church). Shortly afterwards the centre appears on your right where the road divides.
