Penrose Court’s Core Values

We live by the ethos to provide the highest quality of life for each and every one of our residents. In order to do that, our team works directly with our residents, their family and their friends to guarantee they get the help they need, no matter what their situation is. Whether you need a good chat with a friendly face, or just a little more encouragement while staying with us, we’re here to offer guidance and support whenever you need it.

At Penrose Court we are extremely resident-focused, and fully respect every one of our residents, and the extraordinary lives they lead. We therefore believe it is our responsibility as a team of specialists, to ensure that all of our residents feel loved, valued and fulfilled.

Penrose Court has been uniquely designed with careful thought and consideration for the needs of our residents. We work hard to create an environment where independence is promoted, yet residents and their loved ones alike are made to feel as if they’re part of the family.

We take the utmost pleasure in providing the highest standards of care and attention for our residents, and giving professional advice and support to their relatives and friends is essential to providing the best possible care.

Since the very start of Penrose Court, we’ve embraced and appreciated the significance of working together as a team to make a real difference in the lives of our residents. It has always been a priority for us to foster strong relations between our employees, residents, their friends, and family, which has been key in us getting a far deeper knowledge of our residents.

We put our long-term success down to our approach, as it has allowed us to create tailored care solutions for every one of our residents. We are very proud of the home that we have built, as we can offer complete access to a variety of facilities that are certain to make their days more enjoyable and enhance their lives.

We see great value in the individuality of all of our residents at Penrose Court, and like to highlight each and every one of their strengths and qualities. We believe in supporting all of our residents in maintaining their independence, integrity and capability, and as a result, we are delighted to give customised care to each of our residents.

Penrose Court is dedicated to helping every individual resident live a fulfilled life by enjoying a lifestyle that they deserve, in addition to aiding their families and friends in any way possible.

Sense of Independence

We know first and foremost how tough it can be to make the decision to move into a care home. However, whether you’re planning on joining us yourself, or researching on behalf of a relative or friend, it is paramount to us that our residents sense of independence doesn’t just disappear. We want to make certain that you can continue to do the activities you like in the same way you have in the past. We strongly feel as though everybody is entitled to live a life of comfort, freedom and joy, which is why it is one of our fundamental principles.
