Care at
Pear Tree Court

Residential care

There’s never a dull moment for residents, with a full roster of events and entertainment every day. Companionship is never far away, with our popular café open for a cup of tea and a friendly chat anytime, and our secure, well-kept gardens with plenty of seating are a great place to explore and get some invigorating fresh air in nature. Art, music and gentle exercise all contribute to emotional and physical wellbeing. 

Your loved one will benefit from their own en suite room, furnished to a high standard and kept beautifully clean, where they can indulge in quality ‘me time’ and can be sure of a good night’s rest. We’ll help with personal care where necessary, so they’re always looking and feeling their best - ready for whatever their active lifestyle brings. At no time of the day or night will your loved one be more than a few footsteps away from a qualified team member.

Nursing care

Our capable team is highly experienced in supporting older people with a variety of complex conditions including multiple sclerosis, stroke, parkinson’s disease and motor neurone disease. We’ll work closely with GPs and specialist medical professionals to create a comprehensive plan tailored to your loved one’s exact requirements, reviewing it on a regular basis. Whilst with us, you can trust that our medically trained team is on hand 24/7 to provide expert care to your loved one, whatever they should need.

Nursing dementia care

We have years of experience in supporting older people living with dementia, as well as providing for a number of additional physical complications such as multiple sclerosis, stroke and brain injury. Working to a carefully prepared plan in conjunction with local specialists, we’ll focus our entire approach around your loved one’s specific needs, making sure to accommodate if there are any changes in their abilities as time goes on. You’ll find total reassurance in our capable colleagues, who will be available to your loved one no matter what the hour, for whatever they might need.

Respite care

For busy carers looking after a loved one in the local community, we’re happy to be able to offer a valuable lifeline in the form of our excellent short-term respite care options. Reach out to us to help - we can provide expert care while you enjoy a short break or even a much-needed holiday, allowing you to recharge physically and emotionally from the great work you do. We can also step in to ease the transition between hospital and returning home, for outpatients in need of extra TLC.

End of life care

We believe that dignity and respect are crucial in those final stages of life, and this is provided by our compassionate care team. Working closely with your family, GP and medical professionals, your loved one will receive a detailed palliative care plan. This allows you to spend quality, private time together, reassured that they are receiving the best of care.

We are proud to be accredited with the Gold Standards Framework Care Homes Programme. This demonstrates our skill and commitment to delivering high quality, person-centred care to residents at the end of their life.

Understanding and getting to know you

Moving into a care home can be a daunting, particularly for someone living with dementia. We take the time to get to know you and your loved one, putting each individual's needs, desires and choices at the heart of the care we provide. Our care plans are tailored to the individual and their needs, and we understand the importance of evolving them over time. 

Providing dementia friendly environments

Our immediate surroundings can have a huge impact on our quality of life, particularly when trying to make sense of the world around us. We work with academic partners to create care home environments that help people living with dementia to live as independent and stress-free a life as possible.

Our dedicated people and their expertise

Our people are chosen for their attitude, dedication and caring nature, and we are committed to their on-going training and development. From our carers and nurses, to our activity coordinators, chefs and maintenance teams, we will go the extra mile to build strong relationships – not just with individuals living in our care homes, but also with their friends and family.

Support for families and carers

We understand that a dementia diagnosis will affect more than just one individual, and we're here to support you and your family. Seeing a loved one change can be a difficult and heart-breaking experience and often the process of needing or delivering care can change family relationships significantly.

Namaste care

We are proud to offer namaste care to residents living with advanced dementia. The purpose of namaste care is to give comfort and pleasure through sensory stimulation. Our namaste sessions are run by trained carers and involve individual caring touch, such as a hand or foot massages, music therapy, themed sensory and gentle movement sessions, or simply reminiscing.
