Open Days for veterans and their partners at ‘Outstanding’ High Wycombe care home
Royal Star & Garter is holding two open days at its Home in High Wycombe.
They will take place on 3-4 September, and showcase the exceptional nursing and dementia care it provides for veterans and their partners, alongside its Day Care and Lunch Clubs.
The open days will run from 11am-1pm on both days and those wishing to attend are asked to register in advance.
The Home provides loving, compassionate care to veterans and their partners living with disability or dementia. Day Care and Lunch Clubs are among newer services reaching out into the community which have also been launched at the Home.
Royal Star & Garter in High Wycombe was judged to be Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission at its last inspection.
Those attending the open days will be given a snapshot of everyday life at the Hughenden Avenue Home, and the chance to speak to the Home Manager and other senior staff. They will be offered a tour of the Home, which will include the in-house physiotherapy room and hair salon, gardens, activities rooms and lounges. Visitors will also have the chance to join in with the activities organised by the dedicated Wellbeing team, and chat to residents.
‘Allay some concerns’
Reggie Ballos, Home Manager at Royal Star & Garter in High Wycombe, said: “We understand that choosing a care home can feel overwhelming but we hope a visit to our Home will help allay some concerns. We see ourselves as a family, dedicated to providing exceptional care for veterans and their partners. The open days are an opportunity to explore our Home, discover the fantastic facilities and activities available and chat to our team.”
The open days are for veterans – including reservists and those who completed National Service – and their partners, as well as two accompanying relatives or friends. Those wishing to attend are asked to register interest online through Eventbrite, with places limited to three per booking. To register interest, please go to bit.ly/HW-OpenDays.
