Holmwood Care Home

Within walking distance of the city centre and not too far from our Kimberly West and East sites and head office, Holmwood is only a short distance to a wealth of facilities and things to do. This home is a small and comfortable place for our residents to enjoy a fair amount of independence but with the reassurance of expert support on hand if they need it.
With stunning views of Salisbury Cathedral, a sunny patio and charming garden which are overlooked by Holmwood’s lounges and dining room, this tranquil setting can accommodate 20 residents, 17 of which have their own en-suite bathroom. The residents can also enjoy their own kitchen to prepare snacks for themselves and their visitors should they wish.
Ask the people who live with us what sets our care homes apart and you’re likely to receive an answer that’s as different and individual as the person to whom you’re talking.
It could be the setting, not isolated or remote, but conveniently close to family, friends and the community of Salisbury as a whole. Maybe the gardens will be a special pleasure, or their spotlessly clean and comfortable room where they can always be themselves. Mealtimes may well be mentioned, when the food is fresh and tasty, and the menus varied with their help.
We work with a wide range of external health practitioners such as dentists, opticians and hairdressers and frequently arrange visits to cater to the needs to our residents. We also arrange a varied timetable of fun and exciting activities for residents to take part in including animal workshops, live music, arts and crafts, home baking, social events and visits to the local town and day trips to the beach – just to name a few. All our homes also cater for special diets and provide a varied fresh menu for residents to choose from, or even place an order for something they fancy that is not necessarily on the menu.
Our staff take the time and trouble to get to know all residents as individuals and understand what really makes them tick. All of the staff across this service, at every level, receive specialist training covering a wide range of care interventions. They are also supported by an experienced senior team who in turn are supported by a multi-disciplinary clinical and care team from the NHS and Adult Social Care.
Regular groups are held to allow relatives to offer feedback while also providing information and emotional support to the wider family members of every resident.
Wessex Care is a trusted care provider who works closely with Wiltshire Council & Clinical Commissioning Group NHS funded intermediate and long-term care provision for those in need. We have space for private residents who require rehabilitation or longer-term nursing care. If this sounds like the care plan that you or your loved one needs, get in touch with us today.
