Making yourself at home

Monkbarns Care Home is a community of caring people – staff, residents and relatives alike – all working together to provide a warm, compassionate and comforting environment. We know that it can be a big decision to leave somewhere that has been your home for many years, but the team here are passionate about making this your home from home.

We aim to provide the flexibility and comfort you’ve enjoyed previously, but with the knowledge that, if and when you need support, you’re surrounded by professional and caring people.

The team provide a caring environment that respects your needs, while balancing this with opportunities to enjoy stimulating company and a wide range of activities.

Activities at Monkbarns Care Home

Events help improve overall physical strength and mental well-being which is why we encourage regular participation and offer activities suitable for all abilities. Seeing residents flourish as a result is an absolute joy to see.

Regular organised activities vary and include seated exercises, entertainment with regular shows, quizzes and concerts; hobbies, such as arts and crafts, flower arranging, painting and card making; and games.

Events are always optional, but our dedicated activity champions help deliver a full calendar of structured and meaningful activities family and friends can also participate in, so there’s bound to be a lot that appeals.

“I like it here. I’m safe and happy.”
