Day Care
Who is it for?
Day care at Ridgegate Home is designed for elderly and disabled individuals who need assistance with daily living but wish to continue living in their own home. It's also ideal for those who experience loneliness or isolation, or whose family carers need support during the day.
Day care provides an opportunity to socialise with others, participate in activities, and receive professional care and attention in a safe, nurturing environment. It's a valuable way to maintain independence while ensuring you receive the support you need.
Our smaller community of up to 23 residents means day guests become part of our family, building friendships and a sense of belonging. Many guests attend regularly, making day care an important part of their weekly routine.

Day Care
Our Approach
Our care staff are trained to provide individualised care and support in a way that ensures each day guest feels comfortable, valued and supported. We focus on maintaining dignity and independence while providing the assistance needed.
A typical day at Ridgegate Home might include arriving in the morning for tea and conversation, participating in gentle exercise or chair-based activities, enjoying a delicious home-cooked lunch prepared by our kitchen team, taking part in social activities such as games, crafts or music, and relaxing in our comfortable lounges or attractive gardens.
Our staff provide assistance with personal care needs such as washing, grooming and toileting as required. We also support with medication management during your visit if needed.
Additional services available include visits from our hair stylist who can provide haircuts, styling and pampering in our salon area. This is a popular addition to the day for many of our guests.
Our activities coordinator provides a varied programme designed to keep guests physically and mentally stimulated, while always ensuring activities are inclusive and enjoyable for all abilities. Social interaction is at the heart of our day care service.
Day care can be arranged for regular weekly visits or on a flexible basis depending on your needs. It's also an excellent way to experience life at Ridgegate Home if you're considering residential care in the future.
