Homely is the keyword visitors use to describe Glen Garth. There are a number of areas in which the people we support can socialise, we have two shared kitchens, a snug lounge area and an activities area. In the summer we often make use of the outdoor space and our beautiful private garden is often used for BBQs and other activities.
Staff knew people well and recognised the value of person-centred care. This meant people’s support was individual and personalised to their needs and preferences.
