At Derwent we follow the CQC’s Single Assessment Framework to ensure that we deliver person-centred elderly care that goes above and beyond traditional expectations. We don’t just set our standards based on regulations, but also by what we know our residents need and deserve. We therefore use advanced digital systems to improve efficiency, safety and transparency, such as electronic care planning, which ensures every individual’s care is tailored, regularly reviewed and easily accessible for anyone who needs it. We also make use of Camascope to provide accurate electronic medication administration and Pronett to help us manage our estate digitally so that the living environment can be kept safe and homely at all times.

We have a dedicated team of care professionals who have all been fully trained and are supported and encouraged to grow in their roles. This enhances the care that we are able to provide and strengthens the trusted relationships that we have built with our residents and their families.

Elderly care at Derwent is aimed at individuals aged 65 and over who might need assistance with daily living tasks such as bathing, dressing or mobility. It is also available for anyone who would benefit from regular health monitoring or medication support, and those who feel isolated at home and would enjoy regular activities, companionship and outings.

We also provide somewhere safe, secure and supportive for the elderly to live without compromising on their creature comforts. Whether it is short-term respite or long-term care we are able to provide high quality support and care at every stage of the ageing process.
