Steps 1, 2 and 3 – We’re with you every step of the way!

Your parents planned the best way to support you through childhood and beyond, ensuring all your needs were met. So, it’s no wonder that when the roles are reversed, you want to give them the very best care and support. Supporting an older relative is not easy. As their physical or mental health declines, your job gets more difficult. It can often feel like an uphill battle and many caregivers find it difficult to cope.

At Orchard House, we provide tailored support to meet the needs of the people we care for, whether that’s for a few hours a day, a few days a week or longer. Being a small, bespoke home gives us a huge advantage: we are able to really get to know our visitors and residents, meaning we can truly cater to their needs, and yours.

A tailored transition plan formulated with the individual and their family can help reduce stress and anxiety. Families who plan for the future benefit from peace of mind and regain a sense of control that can so easily be lost in times of crisis.

All our services at Orchard House can be accessed independently of each other. So, if you’re thinking about trying out our day care sessions, a couple of days or weeks of respite care or long-term residential care, we can help you plan.

Our day care hub is a great starting point for building acceptance of needing a little extra help, especially for someone who is reluctant to change or to accepting support. Day care sessions are a fun and social place to be.

Day care sessions are £50.50 for those not eligible for funding. But did you know that day care activities are included for free when you book a respite stay with us? That’s worth £252.50 over a five-day break, which makes our care outstanding value!

The beauty of our care and support is the smooth transition from one step to another. At Orchard House, we consider everyone family and begin building a relationship with those we care for the moment they step through the door. That might be why 100% of our long-term residents have taken every step with Orchard House.
