Complex care at Rotherwood is a tailored support for individuals with higher care needs. These may be mental health conditions, physical health needs or multiple conditions that need specialist attention. We don't see complexity as a limitation, but as an opportunity for us to deliver bespoke support that encourages people to live well.
Our teams are experienced in managing complex care needs, combining their clinical expertise with a genuine warmth. We collaborate with hospitals and families to build bespoke care plans that change with needs. This ensures your loved one is always receiving the right level of support.
Complex care may be the right fit for your loved one if:
It is completely normal to feel overwhelmed when facing complex care decisions. We understand that the medical terminology can be confusing, and options are often unclear. However, we want you to know that when individuals with complex needs move into specialist care, their wellbeing often significantly improves. They not only receive the clinical expertise they need, but also regain a sense of purpose and connection.
We are here to help. We want you to feel confident that you are making the right choice for your loved one.
Our approach goes much further than just managing medical needs. We believe that everyone deserves to have a fulfilling life, with friendship, purpose, connection and enjoyment.
It can feel isolating to live with complex needs, but our dedicated teams work to ensure this doesn't happen. We support residents to:
We believe that connection and engagement play a vital role in wellbeing. That is why our teams work to address isolation and low mood through building a sense of community within our homes.
Nutrition is important, and our chefs work hard to curate menus that not only meet nutritional requirements but are also enticing and enjoyable. Meals are prepared to meet individual needs, whether that's modifying the texture for swallowing difficulties or managing the amount of sugar in meals.
We believe that everyone deserves to eat a meal that they enjoy, that's prepared with care. It is a small but significant part of normal life, and that is why we take it so seriously. Our team regularly reviews residents' needs. As they change, we will adapt their nutrition plan, ensuring that they are always receiving the right amount of support.
Having complex needs doesn't mean that you have to give up your independence. Our team offers choices and supports you to make your own decision where safe and possible, rather than just making decisions for you.
We collaborate with families and residents to build tailored care plans that support what independence and dignity means to the individual. We want to enable residents to live on their own terms, whilst having the reassurance that there is expert support available round-the-clock.
