Accommodation
Westacres has 38 bedrooms for Residents, set out over two floors. All but one of these bedrooms is for single occupancy. The other room when available, is large enough for two Residents wishing to share accommodation. Each bedroom is spacious, decorated and furnished to a high standard and equipped with en-suite facilities.
Rooms are cleaned daily and bed linen changed at least once a week – more often if required. Residents are encouraged to bring in personal furnishings provided they comply with current health & safety standards. Any electrical equipment brought into the Home must first be checked by our in-house maintenance team
Throughout the Home we have a variety of communal areas and lounges for the private use of our Residents and their relatives / visitors. In terms of floor area all the bedrooms and communal living areas in the Home by far exceed the National Minimum Standards.
We have televisions in public areas and all Residents’ rooms are fitted with television points as standard.
In addition to our en-suite facilities, the Home has special bath and shower areas suitable for our less able Residents. These facilities allow easy access for Residents who have difficulty using a standard bath. Extensive use is made of modern aids by properly trained staff to make bathing more comfortable. Bathrooms and shower rooms have locks that allow staff to gain access easily in an emergency.
A lift in the building enable Residents to move around the Home independently.
