A home-from-home setting with all of life’s luxuries is on offer at Richmond Manor in Bedfordshire, the state-of-the-art care home that’s truly different.

As well as offering high quality care and stunning features, they have an inspiring attitude to personal care.

It’s not just the on-site beauty salon and wellbeing centre, or the café on site that make a difference, it’s the staff. Richmond Manor employers Homemakers, who combine three important roles in one to offer all round support. Each Homemaker is a carer, housekeeper, and a companion, making sure that residents have their physical and emotional wellbeing needs met.

This holistic approach has led to impressive feedback from clients and families, who all say the new approach is wonderful.

Honest feedback

One family member said her mum had made friends with fellow residents and staff: “She enjoys their company and the daily activities, ranging from baking, quizzes, and film nights. Her care cannot be faulted, and the food served in the beautiful dining room Mum says is excellent.

“The quality of the home's decor, fixtures and fittings is exceptional.”

Award-winning

Richmond Manor, at Dunstable Street, is part of the Hamberley Care Homes group, which won Residential Care Provider of the Year at the Health Investor Awards, in recognition of their unique approach. Judges called the new approach ‘brilliantly innovative”.
