Life at Frank Foster House
Our latest news
Tea Room
The Frank Foster's Tea Room has a vintage theme, specially chosen to appeal to the residents. The cafe has a homely and welcoming feel, and our residents enjoy entertaining their family and friends when they visit, with some residents making their loved ones tea and coffee as they would do at home, thus giving them a sense of empowerment. As well as entertaining visitors, our residents also enjoy regular coffee mornings in the cafe.
Why Choose Us?
- At Frank Foster House, our aim is to practise 'person centred' care for all our residents, and our trained staff are available 24 hours a day to meet your needs.
- We understand the value of individuality, so you will be able to personalise your accommodation with special familiar items you may wish to have around you, such as a favourite chair or pictures to go on the wall.
- We take pride in our activities programme, and you will have the option to join in organised activities if you wish to do so. Our activity coordinators seek out and listen to residents who may have hobbies or pastimes, in addition to arranging a whole variety of activities and entertainment to stimulate all residents.
- Mealtimes are, to many, the highlight of the day and all of our meals are made of fresh produce, prepared by our own chefs and catering teams. We undertake to provide a nutritious and balanced diet around your preferences; we like our residents to have a say in what they eat as they did at home.
Choosing a care home can be an intimidating process, so why not come and visit us at Frank Foster House? We wish to understand everything that is important to you, so on your visit we will discuss your needs and how best we can meet them, as well as giving you the opportunity to look around and ask questions. If you are unable to visit, we will arrange for a staff member to call on you at your home or other place of your choosing at your convenience. We hope to see you soon!
