The home is set on two floors and provides accommodation of 35 single rooms. There are three large open plan lounges leading to a south-facing conservatory, which offers both ample seating and a breath-taking view of the main garden area.
The home also accommodates 12 single bedrooms downstairs, all individually dressed to suit the unique needs of the residents. On the first floor, there are 23 single bedrooms, 5 of which have en-suite facility.
The three lounges are confined with their own identity and purpose - quiet lounge, main lounge and dining lounge. All lounges are equipped with flat screen tv's, radio & reading material.
The dining room lounge has direct access to the conservatory and kitchen allowing residents to request drinks and snack in-between regular meals offering both ample seating and a breath-taking view of the main garden area.
The conservatory also accommodates day-time activities with the support of the activity co-ordinator.
There are ample toilet facilities and bathing areas provided, within close proximity to all residents. Each bedroom will be designed with a different colour door and special features to ensure that residents living with dementia can relate to their own living space.

The staff are very attentive and treat our special loved ones as if they were their own.
Alt Park is very well lead by the manager and supported by her senior staff, resulting in a well run, happy and safe environment! Her door is always open for any worries we may have, very approachable and very compassionate about the job.
It’s a hard decision making sure that you pick the right home, one which we found exceptionally distressing. However finding Alt Park was a blessing for us, ensuring our amazing mum is as much loved by the staff as she is by us.

From a personal view, it was a heartbreaking decision to make as a family to put mum into residential care after years of trying to cope at home. After 2 bad experiences in other homes, Alt Park was recommended to us and we haven’t looked back, mum is now happily settled.
My mother was a resident at Alt Park from August to December 2018 when sadly she passed away. She was treated with the utmost respect and the staff are absolutely outstanding in their quality of care and empathy. The staff go above and beyond their call of duty even taking care of residents...
Although the home needs a little updating they endeavour to keep the home as clean as possible. The bedrooms are basic but again they keep the rooms as clean as the can.
Once again to all the staff at Alt park a big thank you.

My father-in-law has been attending Alt Park on a regular basis for respite over the past two years, Alt Park was recommended to us by a neighbour after years of being disappointed with the care at previous nursing homes. I know when he attends Alt Park he is going to be well looked after by the staff which makes me less anxious and upset when leaving him.

Alt Park has been a Godsend to our family because they care for Mum as we would as a family. The quality of care has been outstanding in every aspect since Mum arrived three months ago. We cannot praise the manager enough for her empathy and professionalism. Her understanding of Mum's changing needs was crucial in Mum settling so quickly and us as a family making the adjustment too. Her team echo that ethos and quality of care treating residents with dignity and care and as individuals dealing with a diversity of complex needs.
We are always made to feel welcome and communication is superb so we feel up to date with every aspect of Mum's care. Her complex medical needs have been met to a superb standard as well. Mum is happy, healthy and enjoying life again. All thanks to the Alt Park team. We can't thank you enough.

After a rocky start coming here, Mum has settled really well. The home covers all of her needs. The staff are approachable and hands on. I believe she's happy and gets the best care possible.

My Aunty has been here just over a year, and it's the happiest she has been. She thinks she is in an all-inclusive hotel. Aunty was very very angry and upset when she arrives and we saw first hand how staff cared for her under an extreme situation. They settled her gently, whispering and stroking her until she relaxed and fell asleep. The care continues to the same standard and we fell at ease and without worry because of the high standard of care.
