Astbury Manor Care Home opened in August 2017 and is one of Avery Healthcare’s latest builds. This three-storey care home in Bracknell has two floors devoted to residential care and one to dementia care, and is designed to a very high specification throughout from the landscaped and terraced grounds through to furniture and furnishings.
The home is a ten-minute walk from the centre of Bracknell, a town currently undergoing exciting new regeneration and development, and has very good transport links, being close to the railway station and the A322 which leads on to the M4.
Sometimes moving homes is a challenge but staff at Astbury Manor make the transition as seamless as possible, focusing on the needs of every individual under their care, while at the same time involving family and friends in the process. Strong bonds of communication are essential to a happy and well-run enterprise. We run our own Facebook which we update regularly so that family can keep in touch with what we are up to.
As for the physical environment, there are spacious single rooms as well as some companion suites for couples. All rooms are decorated and furnished in a calm and soothing style and equipped with wet rooms, television and telephone points; rooms on the ground floor open out onto the gardens. Residents are encouraged to personalise their rooms as they please.
Each floor has its own café/seating area and large dining area, and on the top floor there is a cinema room, spa room and hairdressing salon.
