Sherburn House Charity recognises that the admission process can be a daunting and challenging experience for new residents. Here we briefly outline the admission procedure and Terms and Conditions of Residence:
Admission Procedure:
Prospective Residents, relatives and professional bodies are encouraged to visit Beddell House prior to admission.
Assessment visits are completed by our managers either at the Home or in hospital or at Service User’s home prior to admission in order to plan and implement the needs of the Service User.
Terms & Conditions of Residence:
Fees are payable one month in advance by cheque, standing order or bank transfer.
Fees include provision of 24 hour personal care and assistance, accommodation, all meals, beverages, activities, newspapers and laundering of clothing & bed linen.
Extras, such as clothing, toiletries, hairdressing, physiotherapy and any other third party services, are available and paid for on an ad hoc basis.
All facilities of the Home and grounds are available for unrestricted use by Service Users.
Visitors are welcome at any reasonable time, but will be asked to follow current infection control measures.
All other terms and conditions will be contained in the admission pack or may be viewed on application.
Please contact Tanya Porthouse, Registered Manager on 0191 3720421 to express an interest for residency.
Yes, residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture, soft furnishings and personal belongings to help make them feel at home in their new surroundings.
For the comfort of all residents, we do not allow pets to reside in Beddell House, although visits are permitted. We have a resident budgie, called Skye and two pet guinea pigs called Boo Boo and Cookie. We also have a regular Pet Therapy activity.
