A quiet and convenient location

Though close to local shops, churches and post office, Oriel Care Home is situated in a quiet position off Hagley Road. Our landscaped gardens and conservatories (having only a small suburban cul-de-sac to the rear) offer residents a pleasant and peaceful living environment.

Close care at Oriel's Beech House

As well as our normal residential accommodation, Oriel care Home also offers four Close Care Units. These flatlets provide for more independent living, while still offering the safety and other benefits of our standard residential accommodation. Cleaning and lunchtime meals are provided together with a qualified carer on call 24 hours a day. More...

A high standard of accommodation with en-suite facilities

We pride ourselves on the quality of our accommodation and furnishings, which help to make Oriel a true home from home.

Most bedrooms have en-suite facilities. They are all individually decorated and furnished, and each has its own BT phone line, intercom and TV point. Bath lifts are installed in each bathroom.

Two conservatories provide a sunny outlook where residents can sit and read or watch the garden wildlife. The building has level entrances for easy access to the landscaped gardens; and is equipped with two passenger lifts.

Freedom of choice

Everyone has a fundamental right to retain their personal dignity and independence, irrespective of the severity of their physical or mental infirmity. At Oriel, each resident's social, emotional, religious, cultural and political needs are fully accepted and respected. We keep all residents involved and informed about their individual assessment of need.

We also hold regular meetings with our residents, and actively encourage them to express their opinions about the day-to-day running of the home. All suggestions are carefully considered.

Coming to Oriel Care Home is seen as the beginning of a new and different chapter of life, and with positive support and encouragement, residents continue to lead happy and active lives.

Oriel has always been regarded by residents as their home. Relatives and guests are welcome to visit at any time, and are even invited to take a meal together (by prior arrangement).

 

Close

A wide range of activities, outings and events

We have our own safe and secure transport, allowing us to make regular visits to places of interest, shops, pubs, garden centres and parks. Outings are offered several times each week.

We also organise a range of activities within the home, including both craft and exercise sessions. Since coming to Oriel, many or our residents now enjoy new activities that they previously thought were impracticable.

We encourage everyone to take a daily walk around the beautiful gardens before lunch - with, of course, assistance where needed.

A monthly Holy Communion service is held at the home, and visiting clergy from all denominations are always welcome.

Entertainment

Our residents and their families benefit from a wide variety of entertainment. Visiting musicians are always popular, and we frequently hold discussions where our residents can talk about current events and reminisce.

Meals & Catering

We provide a varied and balanced diet; and we are always happy to accommodate residents' individual dietary requirements.

In addition to the three main meals of the day, we also offer mid-morning and mid-afternoon drinks with biscuits, as well as an additional light supper if required.

Close

Hairdressing, nail care and aromatherapy.

A weekly manicure is offered by staff members who are trained in nail-care.

We even have our own hair salon, and a fully-qualified and insured hairdresser visits twice a week.

An aromatherapist also visits us each week to give hand and arm massages, or a full-body massage if required.

Close

Fully trained and caring staff

Our fully trained staff are on call 24 hours a day. Most have worked for Oriel for many years and this continuity of care helps to provide a happy, homely environment. Residents are able to receive continual care and find companionship and security.

 

Close

Comprehensive healthcare arrangements

Residents may, of course, continue to use the services of their own doctor (if still in the same NHS area), or they may choose to join the list of local doctors that serve Oriel Care Home. Community nurses offer attention whenever required, and our own qualified staff are able to dispense medication under the supervision of the local pharmacist.

Other specialists visit the home where necessary to provide chiropody services, physiotherapy, dental and optical treatment.
