Thank you for taking the time to submit this review. It is always lovely to hear that people would be likely to recommend Forest Edge.<br>Here at Forest Edge, we encourage all of our residents to spend time in the communal areas, to socialise with each other and with staff and to take part in the wide variety of activities we offer every day. However, we do realise that this is not to everyone’s taste and because of this, we offer various alternatives activity-wise for those happier in their own company. We aim to include and give as much time as possible to our residents and keep everyone involved, no matter what their interests or preferences. We always welcome any suggestions or new ideas on how best to do this.<br>In regards to the layout of our rooms and the facilities available here at Forest Edge, we do offer both closed and open plan ensuite toilet facilities, depending on the room. Due to the changing needs and abilities of our residents, we feel it is important in a care home setting to have use of the extra space available in our open plan en-suite facilities where necessary, meaning we are still able to care for our residents at the highest standard and in the way best suited to them. Again, we do appreciate that this is not suited to everybody, which is why we provide a clinical curtain for our residents that choose to use this. Our resident’s privacy is, of course, extremely important to us, which is why all staff will knock and wait for a response before entering anybody’s room.
