Families and friends are encouraged to give us their views too and, more formally, can join one of our committees. It is by concentrating on the residents in a holistic way that we get the best out of them and offer the best residential, dementia and respite care in Rugeley. We are minds as well as bodies, and to that end we have an energetic recreation and leisure team who devise a wide programme of activities and social engagements for residents and families.

Want to know what else we get up to at Horse Fair Care Home in Rugeley?
Residents are free to come and go as they please and the town centre is only a few minutes’ walk away from our Rugeley care home. But we also love organising trips out in the minibus, taking our residents on excursions further afield across Staffordshire.
In the warmer months, residents make great use of the outside patio area, which is completely enclosed for privacy, a perfect place for outdoor exercise, or just a nice cup of tea. This area includes a brand-new sensory garden, designed to provide a variety of sensory stimuli with its aromatic plants.

Popular among our activities are the reminiscence sessions in which residents look back over the years and discuss major historical events both on a local and international scale. They very much enjoy remembering where they were at key times, and we often find friendships forming and strengthening over shared memories during these sessions. This is very popular with our residents who live with dementia, and it’s just one of the reasons we believe we offer some of the best dementia care in Rugeley.
We know how important it is for our residents to keep in touch with family and friends, that’s why we provide free Wi-Fi throughout the home. Computers are available for Skype, email, or just browsing. Don’t forget to visit our Facebook pages!
Family members are welcome at any time. This means we often enjoy the company of guests for dinner, so, our dining room feels more like a large family room. You’ll notice lively chatter about current affairs or the day’s events over a glass of wine or beer. Alcoholic and soft drinks are available with lunch and the evening meal, and all our produce is fresh, seasonal and, where possible, locally sourced from across Staffordshire.

Birthdays and other celebrations are always taken seriously and are a good excuse for doing that extra special something to accompany the good wishes.
