Pemberley House is situated in Basingstoke, Hampshire, close to the M3. The home has only recently become a member of the Avery Healthcare family of care homes. Since its take over in April 2017, Avery has been working hard to ensure that Pemberley House matches other Avery homes in its supportive, vibrant and companionable atmosphere, providing residents with stimulation and activity, as well as engagement with other residents and with life in general.
Round-the-clock compassionate care and active minds and bodies come as standard, and so does a recognition of the importance of good lines of communication with friends and family. After all, adjusting to life in a home after a lifetime of independence can be a challenging time.
We encourage our residents to make their bedrooms, all of which come with en-suite wet rooms, TV and telephone points as personal as they would like them to be and to enjoy having familiar and favourite things around them. Each floor of the home has its own small-scale lounges and dining rooms. The ground floor café is a popular meeting area, especially on coffee mornings.
To see what we get up to you might want to view our dedicated Facebook that is kept up to date with all the activities and goings on in the home, or call our friendly manager Philippa McSkimming on 01256 632000 if you would like to see round the home. She will be more than pleased to arrange a visit for you so you can see first hand what sets our care homes in Basingstoke apart and why we were twice voted residential care provider of the year in 2016.
Arrange a Visit
Residents enjoy armchair exercises, the arts and crafts club, sewing, growing herbs and vegetables in the raised beds and watching all the birds on the bird feeders. The garden is a sun trap and a lovely place for a morning coffee or afternoon tea and having a good old chinwag. We have our own minibus which finds its way to the local garden centres, the shops or the local pub for lunch. We work up an appetite which serves us well when meal times come around.
All our food is cooked on the premises and offers good nutrition and variety, although we always like some good old fish and chips on a Friday and roast dinners on a Sunday. All special diets can be taken care of and healthy snacks, cakes and biscuits are always on offer throughout the day if a top-up is needed.
